⭐ SHAWNA HAMIC & RIVER MEDWAY ANNOUNCED TO LEAD UNFORTUNATE – THE UNTOLD STORY OF URSULA THE SEA WITCH ⭐
Casting has been announced for the upcoming London run & UK tour of UNFORTUNATE – THE UNTOLD STORY OF URSULA THE SEA WITCH.
Shawna Hamic (Orange is the New Black, 1776 on Broadway) will lead the cast of the critically-acclaimed musical parody as Ursula, opposite RuPaul’s Drag Race UK star River Medway as Ariel.
They are joined by Thomas Lowe as Triton, Allie Dart as Sebastian, Jamie Mawson as Eric, Julian Capolei as Grimsby. The ensemble features Corrina Buchan, Jack Gray, Jamie McKillop and Milly Willows.
Join everyone’s favourite Disney Diva, Ursula, as she gives her take on what really happened all those years ago under the sea. With an original hot pop soundtrack and trademark filthy humour, it’s time to take the plunge and dive into this year’s hottest night out. Cruella told her side, and Maleficent’s had her moment. Now the legendary queer queen is ready to spill, in this tell-all tale of sex, sorcery and suckers. With a new script and production, the latest version of this hit show
is bigger, bolder and sexier than ever before.
The smash-hit show is written by Robyn Grant (who also directs) and Daniel Foxx, with music, arrangements and orchestrations by Tim Gilvin. The musical features set, costume and puppet design by Abby Clarke, choreography by Melody Sinclair, additional orchestrations by Nikki Davison and Joe Davison for Auburn Jam, musical supervision and direction by Arlene McNaught, lighting design by Adam King, sound design by Lucy Baker, Oscar Thompson and Will Thompson, flying and effects by John Maddox for Suspended Illusions, make-up design by Maya Lewis, intimacy and fight direction by Claire Llewellyn for RC-Annie, production management by Titch Gosling, assistant direction by Stephenson Ardern-Sodje, costume supervision by Sian Clare and puppets built by Aled Williams. The band is completed by Dejeanté Hinks on guitar and Becky Slater on drums.
UNFORTUNATE – THE UNTOLD STORY OF URSULA THE SEA WITCH will kick off at Southwark Playhouse Elephant for 10 weeks, running from 8th December 2023 – 17th February 2024, before touring across the UK through to Summer 2024.
