The hit West End and Broadway production of Beautiful – The Carole King Musical begins its run this week at the New Theatre, Peterborough from October 25 – 29.
Based on the story of Carole King’s remarkable rise from singer/songwriter to chart-topping music legend, this brand-new touring production of Beautiful – The Carole King Musical will take you back to the heart of King’s landmark 1971 album Tapestry.
Featuring countless classics such as You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman, Take Good Care of my Baby, You’ve Got a Friend, Up on the Roof, Locomotion and You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling, Beautiful – The Carole King Musical is written by Douglas McGrath, with songs by Carole King, Gerry Goffin, Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil.
The talented Company of actor-musicians is led by Molly-Grace Cutler (The Worst Witch, Girls Don’t Play Guitars, We’ll Live and Die in these Towns) as Carole King. Tom Milner (Holby City, Waterloo Road) plays Gerry Goffin, Carole’s former husband and collaborator.
Seren Sandham-Davies (Crazy For You, Brassed Off) and Jos Slovick, who performed in the original West End production of Once, play husband and wife song-writing duo Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann and Garry Robson plays music producer and talent manager Don Kirshner.
Claire Greenway, who originated the role of Sister Mary Patrick in Sister Act at the London Palladium, plays Carole’s mother Genie Klein, and Dan de Cruz joins as the production’s on-stage Musical Director.
The cast is completed by Naomi Alade, Kemi Clarke, Chris Coxon, Amena El-Kindy, Louise Francis, Dylan Gordon-Jones, Jessica Jolleys, Sorrel Jordan, Myles Miller, Peter Mooney, Adrien Spencer and Kevin Yates.
