The Lost Boys musical will come to the UK, producer Patrick Wilson says

Patrick Wilson has taken to UK radio to announce The Lost Boys will be making its way to UK shores.

Chatting to Gaby Roslin on Magic today, Wilson said they “will” be bringing the show across the Atlantic – though no timescale or venue has been revealed. You can watch the video below.

Nominated for 12 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, The Lost Boys is about a mother and her two sons who move to Santa Carla, California, looking for a fresh start. Instead, they find a town plagued by vampires who take a liking to oldest son Michael. Will he abandon his mom and bro for this sexy, shadowy new chosen family? It won four Tony Awards last weekend in New York.

The musical is based on the 1987 film by Joel Schumacher. In his review for our sibling site TheaterMania, critic Pete Hempstead called it, “the best new musical on Broadway.”

The Lost Boys features a book by David Hornsby and Chris Hoch, a score by The Rescues, direction by two-time Tony winner Michael Arden, and aerial choreography by Lauren Yalango-Grant (Parade) and Christopher Cree Grant. Yes, the teenage vampires fly.
