⭐ BERLUSCONI – A NEW MUSICAL – WORLD PREMIERE ANNOUNCED FOR SOUTHWARK PLAYHOUSE ELEPHANT ⭐
Francesca Moody Productions and Wishful Thinking Musicals are delighted to announce the world premiere of Berlusconi – A New Musical.
Berlusconi is a naughty, noisy exposé of the original perma-tanned media mogul turned populist politician, told through the eyes of three formidable women ready to share their side of the story and break the veneer of that million Lira smile.
Berlusconi is an urgent and prescient story about a brand of political leadership that has become all too familiar. With soaring melodies and driving beats, this hilarious and outrageous new musical assembles an award-winning team to tell the astonishing, outlandish, almost true story of one of the world’s most charismatic, charming and morally dubious political leaders.
Written by Ricky Simmonds and Simon Vaughan, this modern-day cautionary
tale is produced by Francesca Moody (Fleabag) and directed by James Grieve
(Fisherman’s Friends).
The musical will be choreographed by Rebecca Howell (The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13 ¾) with Set and Costume by Lucy Osborne (The Famous Five), David White (Les Misérables) as Executive Musical Supervisor, Jordan Li Smith (City of Angels) as Musical Supervisor & Musical Director and Dan Samson (Heathers) as Sound Designer and Casting by Will Burton CDG. Associate produced by Alex Cook and Alan Hayling, based on an original idea by Alan Hayling.
Berlusconi – A New Musical will play Southwark Playhouse Elephant, running from 25th March – 29th April 2023.
