Olivier Award winners John Dagleish and George Maguire will reunite next month for a concert at Live at Zedel.

Produced by Adam Blanshay for JFL Theatricals, the show is entitled A Long Way From Home and will see the pair perform together for the first time since they left the West End production of Sunny Afternoon. They both won Olivier Awards for their performance in the musical about British rock band The Kinks.

A Long Way From Home will play two dates at the intimate Live at Zedel off Piccadilly Circus, and the evening will feature stories and songs from their early days growing up to the present day.

Dagleish's other theatre credits include Common (National Theatre), A Midsummer Night's Dream (Young Vic) and The Winter's Tale (Garrick). Maguire's stage work also includes Another Night Before Christmas (Bridge House Theatre), The Busker's Opera (Park Theatre) and Hair (Piccadilly Theatre).

A Long Way From Home runs at Live at Zedel on 7 and 15 August.
