Martin Guerre: Alain Boublil, Claude-Michel Schönberg and Annabel Mutale Reed discuss this new take on the much-loved musical

Welcome to the WhatsOnStage Podcast!

Martin Guerre has a devoted following amongst musical theatre fans, originally penned by Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg, the two creators of that little-known musical Les Misérables (whatever happened to that one?).

Now, they’re returning to passion project Martin Guerre to give the musical a new lease of life at the Old Vic, staged in the round, alongside new co-lyricist Annabel Mutale Reed. The trio join Alex Wood to discuss the project from their rehearsal room in south London.

Sarah Crompton and Wood host a weekly series on all things theatrical. News, views, frank exchanges and lists offer an unmissable guide to what’s happening on stage (and in film and on television) now, in the past and in future.
