Casting has been confirmed for Wild About You‘s return to London.

The musical previously enjoyed a series of concerts at Theatre Royal Drury Lane and will now have its first full run at Charing Cross Theatre from 18 January 2027 to 10 April 2027.

With a book by Dani Stoller and music and lyrics by Chilina Kennedy, it follows Billy on the day of his high school graduation party, when he finds a trunk of letters written to him by his late mother. A recording is available to listen to.

Leading the show are Jodie Steele as Olivia, Stewart Clarke as Michael, and Alfie Friedman as Billy.

They’re joined by Danielle Steers as Jess, Bea Ward as Scoot, and Cassandra McCowan as female ensemble. Further casting is to be announced.

The creative team behind Wild About You includes director Kristin Hanggi, music supervisor, orchestrator and arranger Daniel Edmonds, producer Brian Spector and associate producer Caitlin McNeilage, with additional names to be announced in due course.

Spector said: “Following our unforgettable sold-out concerts, we are beyond thrilled to bring the fully staged world premiere of Wild About You to London. This incredible company of actors brings such raw emotional depth, soaring vocals, and contemporary heart to Chilina Kennedy’s gorgeous score. We cannot wait for audiences to experience this deeply moving journey of love, discovery and connection.”
