The musical, which will be the first production at The Other Palace (formerly the St James Theatre), is directed and choreographed by Olivier Award-winner Drew McOnie.

The cast also features Ako Mitchell (Ragtime), Lizzy Connolly (Once in a Lifetime), Bronte Barbe (Shrek), Dex Lee (Grease) and Tiffany Graves (The Producers). They are joined by Tony Award-winner Donna McKechnie, Melanie Bright, Simon Thomas, Gloria Obianyo, Genisis Lynea, Steven Serlin and Sebastien Torkia.

The Wild Party runs at The Other Palace from 13 February to 1 April.
