Kenrex releases music video and cast update for new London run

Exclusive: Enjoy a new music video from Kenrex as the show officially opens its second London season tonight!

Described as part true crime, part Western, the play explores the events of 10 July 1981 in Skidmore, Missouri, when a man was shot dead in broad daylight, reportedly with 60 witnesses, none of whom claimed to have seen the incident.

Co-written by Jack Holden and Ed Stambollouian, Holden performs the one-person show, embodying multiple characters alongside live music performed by composer John Patrick Elliott. Stambollouian directs the production, which features an original Americana-inspired score.

Fabian Bevan has joined the company as the understudy.

Watch the music video for “Dead End Road” below:

It received a glowing five-star write-up when first seen at Sheffield Theatres’ Tanya Moiseiwitsch Playhouse, being described as “a spell-binding amalgam of Under Milk Wood, Bonnie and Clyde and a more democratic version of Gunfight at the OK Corral.” 

The creative team includes Elliott (original music writer and performer), Anisha Fields (design), Joshua Pharo (lighting and video design), Giles Thomas (sound design), and Sarah Golding (movement direction), with James Anderton as production manager.

An album featuring music from the production, Kenrex: Music from the Play by Elliott, is available to stream and includes songs and instrumental tracks from the show alongside additional material.

It runs at the Other Palace until 1 February 2026.
