First look production shots have been released for the world premiere of new musical, Then, Now & Next.

Written by Christopher J Orton and Jon Robyns, the project marks the first collaboration between the duo. The piece tells the tale of Alex Shaw (played by Alice Fearn) across 20 years, as she experiences the love of two very different men.

Under the direction of Julie Atherton, the cast also includes Tori Allen-Martin (Park Bench), Justin Brett (Million Dollar Quartet), Peter Hannah (Waitress), and Joaquin Pedro Valdes (Death Note).

The band features musical director and keys player Honor Halford-MacLeod, guitarist James William-Pattison, cellist Alice Luddington, and percussionist Tom Bennett.

The creative team also includes movement director Alexzandra Sarmiento, set and costume designer Bob Sterrett, lighting designer Adam King, sound designer Raffaela Pancucci, production manager Titch Gosling, dramaturg Kate Golledge, stage manager Zoe Leonard, assistant stage manager Odette Robertson, and sound operator Amber Carey. General management is by Paul Virides Productions.
