This production opened at the Hope Mill Theatre in Manchester last year, and will transform the London venue into an immersive, psychedelic Woodstock-esque experience with a special pop-up restaurant and themed drinks before the show starts.
It is directed by Jonathan O’Boyle who has acted as an assistant director on An American in Paris at the Dominion Theatre and directed The Scottsboro Boys at the Young Vic and in the West End.
