⭐ MONA LOSER – A NEW MUSICAL – NEW WORKSHOP – CAST ANNOUNCEMENT ⭐
The full cast for the latest workshop performances of new musical MONA LOSER has been announced.
MONA LOSER is the new musical from the award-winning team behind Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York), writing duo Kit Buchan and Jim Barne and director Tim Jackson.
When rock bottom hits, washed-up producer DOC makes one last gamble: change the sound, change the voice, change the game. He drops the track, and the result? It blows up. Suddenly, the world wants to know: Who is MONA LOSER?
Inspired by Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and set to a slick, high-energy pop score, this sharp, satirical musical follows an unsuspecting girl as she’s pushed into the spotlight to play the part of a viral sensation. But as the spotlight gets hotter and DOC lurks just out of frame, the question is: how high can Mona climb, and how far can she fall?
The workshop cast will star Ako Mitchell, Annabel Marlow, Carla Dixon-Hernandez, Chad Saint Louis, Kayna Montecillo, Nic Myers, Obioma Ugoala and Steven Webb.
Buchan and Barne made their West End debut with home-grown hit British musical Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York), which recently received 8 Tony Award nominations including Best Musical, Actor and Actress in a Leading Role in a Musical, Original Score, Direction, Book, Orchestrations and Scenic Design, making it the most-nominated British production of the season.
Following workshops at Southwark Playhouse Borough (The Little) in 2025 and Birmingham Hippodrome earlier this year, this next of workshops for MONA LOSER will offer audiences another opportunity to be some of the first to get a glimpse at this new musical-in-development. These workshops marked the beginning of the creation and development process which is supported by Birmingham Hippodrome’s New Musical Theatre Department, a department dedicated to championing original British musical theatre.
MONA LOSER will play Southwark Playhouse Borough, London, running from 2nd – 5th September 2026, with tickets on sale now.
Fabulous! ! !
