BONNIE & CLYDE THE MUSICAL: FILMED LIVE to be made available to stream online

It has announced today that Bonnie & Clyde the Musical: Filmed Live will be available to stream online on demand from 24 June at 2pm GMT.

Filmed live at Theatre Royal Drury Lane during two special one-off concert stagings in January 2022, Bonnie & Clyde The Musical: Filmed Live features theatre royalty Jeremy Jordan as Clyde, who originated the role of Clyde Barrow in the Broadway premiere of the production in 2011. He is joined by Frances Mayli McCann who went on to originate the role of Bonnie in the West End.

The two sold-out concerts in London directed by Nick Winston made way for Bonnie & Clyde The Musical to become a musical sensation in the UK. This special edition filmed version of the concerts that began it all is a chance for fans and newcomers alike to experience the award-winning musical in an entirely new and immersive way.

Jeremy Jordan said: “Playing Clyde Barrow in Bonnie & Clyde The Musical has been one of the highlights of my career. I was delighted to reprise the role, alongside the fantastic Frances Mayli McCann as Bonnie, for a special concert staging at Theatre Royal Drury Lane in 2022 and am beyond thrilled to be able to share that version of the show with audiences worldwide.”

Producer David Treatman said: “For many, exposure to musical theatre begins at home or in school, and my hope is that worldwide audiences will bring Bonnie & Clyde into their auditoriums and living rooms.

“We were able to capture an extraordinary performance of this beloved show in an unusually vital way. There is an electricity that courses through the performances that we were able to translate to the screen through the excellence of the artists involved at every level of the production, and an innovative approach to the taping. While nothing can replace the live experience, our film harnesses the power of cinema to capture its essence, preserving the energy of live performance while embracing the advantages of film, delivering both the danger and excitement of the stage alongside the intimacy and intention of the camera at a price that anyone can afford.”

The filmed concert staging features some of the biggest names in musical theatre including George Maguire as Buck, Natalie McQueen as Blanche, Trevor Dion Nicholas as Preacher, Liam Tamne as Ted, Casey Al-Shaqsy as Stella, Simon Anthony as Cop/Bud/Archie/Deputy Johnson, Gillian Bevan as Cummie Barrow/Eleanor, Eloise Davies as Trish, Adrian Grove as Henry Barrow, Debbie Kurup as Governor Miriam Ferguson, Matthew Malthouse as Bob Alcorn, Jeremy Secomb as Judge/Sheriff Schmid, Russell Wilcox as Captain Frank Hamer, and Julie Yammanee as Emma Parker.

Nick Winston directs the concerts with musical direction by Katy Richardson, assistant direction by Alexzandra Sarmiento, lighting by Zoe Spurr, set and costume design by Philip Whitcomb, and sound by Tom Marshall.

The band is made up of assistant musical director Chris Poon, Kate Ingram, Hannah Lawrance, Kobi Pham, Jack Pennifold, Zach Okonkwo, Elliot Lyte, and Annie Blake.

Pre-orders for the special stream on demand of the production can be made now here ahead of the release date on 24 June.
