⭐ ELTON JOHN & TIM RICE’S AIDA REVIVAL WEST END PLANS REVEALED ⭐
There are plans to bring the new revival of Elton John & Tim Rice’s Aida to the West End, it has been revealed.
Seth Rudetsky recently interviewed Schele Williams, for his Stars In The House online series, who starred in the original Broadway production of Aida and is now set to direct the upcoming revival.
Williams gave an update on the highly anticipated revival to Rudetsky, who states in an article for Playbill: “The new Aida was supposed to start at Paper Mill, then do a national tour, and then go to Germany (and hopefully Broadway and the West End). Because of COVID-19, the first two places are out so they’re aiming to premier in Germany.”
Winner of four 2000 Tony Awards, Elton John and Tim Rice’s Aida is an epic tale of love, loyalty and betrayal, chronicling the love triangle between Aida, a Nubian princess stolen from her country, Amneris, an Egyptian princess, and Radames, the soldier they both love.
This is super exciting news because Aida has never been staged professionally in London or elsewhere in the UK. So I’m glad that we might finally get the chance to see this amazing show in the West End.
Fingers crossed! ! !
UPDATE – Sir Tim Rice confirmed London plans.
