⭐ IDENTICAL – NEW MUSICAL BASED ON THE PARENT TRAP – CASTING ANNOUNCED ⭐
Casting has been announced for the upcoming musical premiere Identical.
After a five-year casting search and multiple auditions across the UK, three sets of talented identical twins are about to become Britain’s latest musical theatre stars.
Kyla and Nicole Fox, aged 12, from County Armagh, Northern Ireland, Emme and Eden Patrick, 12 from Waltham Abbey and Sienna and Savannah Robinson, 12 from Bromley, are the youngsters playing Lottie and Lisa in the world premiere of Identical, a new musical destined for the West End.
Identical tells the story of Lottie and Lisa, twin girls separated at birth, reunited by chance at a summer camp 10 years later. In an attempt to re-join their divorced parents, they decide to swap identities.
Identical is based on the novel ‘The Parent Trap’ by Erich Kästner, which inspired hugely successful Disney films featuring Hayley Mills in 1961 and Lindsay Lohan in 1998.
Identical has music & lyrics by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe with a book by Stuart Paterson.
Identical is co-produced by Nottingham Playhouse and Kenny Wax Ltd and directed by Olivier & Tony Award-winning director Trevor Nunn.
Identical will open at Nottingham Playhouse 26th July – 14th August 2022, then transfer to Salford’s The Lowry from 19th August – 3rd September 2022, with future dates to be announced.
