The producers of the world premiere production of new musical In Dreams have released a brand-new trailer.

Penned by David West Read, the Emmy and Golden Globe-winning writer (known for his work on Schitt’s Creek and & Juliet), the production, which received a luminous review from WhatsOnStage earlier this month, is currently running at Leeds Playhouse until 5 August.

The story revolves around the former lead singer of a country rock band who, at a crucial moment in her life, throws a party at a family-run Mexican restaurant, aiming to reconnect with old friends while concealing her true motivations.
