Opening hours extended! The Olivier-nominated international stage sensation The Choir of Man continues its sell-out West End run, with new tickets released for dates until 30 July 2023, and announces new cast members.

Conor Hanley, who has previously performed in The Choir of Man on the 2022 US tour, the Edinburgh Fringe, and Coventry City of Culture, joins the company at the Arts Theatre as The Poet from this evening (1 February), marking his West End debut. Daniel Harnett also returns to the show, having been part of the original West End cast, and the company of the US tour.

They join Michael Baxter (Les Misérables – 25th Anniversary tour) as The Maestro, Levi Tyrell-Johnson (professional debut) as The Hard Man, Mark Irwin (The Commitments, West End) as The Barman, Owen Bolton (professional debut) as The Beast, Jordan Oliver (The Sound of Music, UK Tour) as The Handyman, Matt Beveridge (Titanic, Princess of Wales Toronto) as The Romantic, Matt Nalton (Jersey Boys, West End) as The Pub Bore, and Matt Thorpe (We Will Rock You, West End) as The Joker.

Completing the company are Sam Ebenezer (The Mousetrap, West End), Gavin Ryan (West Side Story, Bord Gais Dublin) and Lucas Koch (Million Dollar Quartet, Barn Theatre).

Producer Nic Doodson said: “The Choir of Man is a show all about being together and the power of community. Over the years, we’ve been lucky enough to work with some incredibly talented and hard-working actors and musicians and we’re delighted to welcome Conor and Danny back into our little pub. The Jungle is a place through which many actors have passed, and each had contributed their talents and stories to the fabric of our show so when actors return it feels in a way like they’re coming home.”
