⭐ CORALINE – A MUSICAL – WORLD PREMIERE ANNOUNCED – LEEDS PLAYHOUSE – SPRING 2025 ⭐
The world premiere stage musical adaptation of CORALINE has been announced.
After worldwide success as a bestselling book and cult movie, CORALINE – A MUSICAL is now set to thrill audiences when it premieres at Leeds Playhouse in Spring 2025, ahead of a national tour.
This exciting new musical is based on the novel by Neil Gaiman (The Ocean at the End of the Lane, Good Omens, Doctor Who) and is adapted by award-winning playwright and screenwriter Zinnie Harris, with music and lyrics by British musician and songwriter Louis Barabbas.
CORALINE – A MUSICAL explores the fascinating spaces created by alternate realities. As young Coraline moves into a new home with her family, she soon discovers that things are not what they seem. The roof leaks, the wallpaper is peeling off the walls, the new neighbours are a little eccentric and her parents are so busy they hardly notice her at all.
As Coraline explores her new home, she discovers a mysterious door, an entrance to a parallel “perfect” world. But not everything is as it seems – and everyone has buttons for eyes!
CORALINE – A MUSICAL will be directed by Leeds Playhouse Artistic Director and Chief Executive James Brining, with set & costume design by Colin Richmond, puppet design & direction by Rachael Canning and choreography by EJ Boyle.
Further cast and creatives to be announced.
CORALINE – A MUSICAL is a co-production between Leeds Playhouse, Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh and Birmingham Rep.
CORALINE – A MUSICAL will play Leeds Playhouse’s Courtyard Theatre, running from 11th April – 11th May 2025, with tickets on general sale from 29th May 2024.
