The show will play in concert for two nights next month
Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey’s If/Then has unveiled rehearsal images ahead of its concert run.
Originally premiering on Broadway in 2014, If/Then explores the impact of choices and chance through the story of Elizabeth, a 38-year-old city planner returning to New York after a divorce. Her story branches into two parallel paths, each showing how a single decision can shape an entirely different future.
Kerry Ellis will star as Elizabeth in the West End concert, which will be staged on 10 February at the Savoy Theatre. She is joined by Adam Garcia (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang) as Josh, David Hunter as Lucas, Preeya Kalidas (Everybody’s Talking about Jamie) as Kate, Jenny Fitzpatrick (Oliver!) as Anne, Tim Howar (The Phantom of the Opera) as Stephen, Carl Man as David, Joni Ayton-Kent (The Watch) as Elena and John Owen-Jones as Stephen.
The ensemble includes Kayleigh Thadani, Sario Solomon, Christian Maynard, Lauren Hall, Danny Becker and M-Jae Cleopatra Isaac.
The show will run on 10 and 17 February, with BSL interpretation during the latter performance. Direction is by Bill Buckhurst (Sister Act, The Time Traveller’s Wife), with musical staging by Olivier Award nominee Alistair David (Kiss Me, Kate, Show Boat), and music direction by Michael England (The Phantom of the Opera, Les Misérables). The production has casting by Pearson Casting.
