I’m Every Woman – The Chaka Khan Musical has released a brand-new trailer ahead of its world premiere run, beginning performances in London this week.

Alexandra Burke leads the new musical exploring Khan’s life and career. It features songs from her solo work and her time with the band Rufus, including “I Feel for You”, “Tell Me Something Good”, “Ain’t Nobody”, “Sweet Thing”, “Higher Love” and “Through the Fire.” The book includes appearances from figures such as Joni Mitchell, Prince, Stevie Wonder and Steve Winwood.

The production was originally scheduled for a limited run at the Peacock Theatre from 5 to 28 March 2026, which was halted due to building repair works.
