Alex James Ellison and Tom Lees’ musical Fiver will be released as a live album on Friday 5 March.

The show originally premiered at the Southwark Playhouse in July 2019, where it received nominations for Best New Musical at the BroadwayWorld and West End Wilma Awards and Best Off-West End Production at the Whatsonstage Awards.

A live streamed concert version of the musical was also performed during November 2020 with the original cast, including Luke Bayer (Everybody's Talking About Jamie), Dan Buckley (Ferris), Aoife Clesham (Peter Pan), Hiba Elchikhe (Everybody's Talking About Jamie) and Alex James Ellison (The Secret Garden).

Fiver follows the story of a humble five pound note as it passes through the hands and pockets of people in London.

The live concert recording, mixed and mastered by Charles Perry, can be pre-ordered now here or on iTunes. There will also be an Instagram Live Listening Party on Thursday 4 March at 7.30pm.
