ORDINARY DAYS THE MUSICAL to play at The Old Joint Stock and Upstairs at the Gatehouse

Ordinary Days The Musical will return to The Old Joint Stock Theatre for a limited engagement from 9-20 April, it has been announced, before transferring to Upstairs at the Gatehouse in London from 22-27 April.

Following the tremendous success of The Old Joint Stock Theatre’s five-star summer show First Date, which garnered rave reviews and sold-out performances, The Old Joint Stock, now in collaboration with West End Best Friend Productions, is back with another must-see production.

Ordinary Days tells the story of four young New Yorkers whose lives intersect as they search for fulfilment, happiness, love, and cabs. Through a score of vibrant and memorable songs, their experiences ring startlingly true to life. Ordinary Days is an original musical for anyone who's ever struggled to appreciate the simple things in a complex place. With equal doses of humour and poignancy, it celebrates how 8.3 million individual stories combine in unexpected ways to make New York City such a unique and extraordinary home.

Ordinary Days The Musical is brought to life under the direction of Karl Steele, with associate director Emily Susanne Lloyd and produced by the Old Joint Stock and West End Best Friend.

Director Karl Steele said: “There is something beautifully subtle about Ordinary Days and I’ve had the pleasure of directing this piece previously. I've loved exploring how a shared experience, a connection, a coincidence can form in any way during your everyday routine and how that can bring people together. The ordinary being extraordinary. What's wonderful about this piece is finding those layers and revealing how connected we all are without always being aware of it.”
