Exclusive: A new musical by Charli Eglington, Saving Mozart, will receive its UK premiere at the Other Palace this summer.

The production follows the story of Mozart through the perspectives of the women who surrounded and influenced him, including his sister Nannerl and wife Constanze, alongside his father Leopold. The musical premiered earlier this year in Gmunden, Austria, in association with Musical Frühling in Gmunden.

Saving Mozart is written and composed by Eglington and directed by Markus Olzinger. The creative team includes Taylor Walker (choreographer), Julia Pschedezki (costume designer), Justin Williams (set designer), Ben Jacobs (lighting designer) and Ben Armstrong (casting director). Additional creative roles will be announced.

The show will be running from 28 July to 30 August 2025. Press night is set for 5 August, with tickets on sale from 2pm.

An all-star cast has also been revealed.
