Tickets on sale for world premiere of new sung-through rock opera production of SUPERYOU
The new sung-through rock opera version of Lourds Lane’s SuperYou will have its first fully staged UK production at Leicester’s Curve theatre this autumn, running in the Studio Theatre from 22 October - 9 November.
After making its West End debut for a sold-out, one night only concert at The Lyric Theatre in 2023, this new rendition of the beloved cult hit is a complete reimagination, now rewritten and presented entirely through song.
The musical’s score is a dynamic rock soundtrack that seamlessly incorporates a wide range of musical styles, including pop, hip hop, swing, blues, gospel, country, and soulful power ballads. Through its instantly memorable soundtrack, SuperYou delves into themes of discovering inner strength, while fostering acceptance, inclusivity, and kindness, both towards others and, crucially, oneself, making it a tale that feels particularly relevant and timely in today’s world.
Creator Lourds Lane said: “The show we are world premiering in Leicester is a completely different show from any concert or presentation that we have ever done in the past, as the show is now restructured and completely sung through like Rent, Les Mis, or Hamilton. If you are already a fan of our music, now there is much more of it! I'm thrilled for fans old and new to come out and be the first to see our brand-new rock opera premiering at Curve theatre this Fall!”
SuperYou has book/music/lyrics and co-arrangements by Lourds Lane, direction and choreography by JoAnn M. Hunter, music supervision by Wendy Bobbitt Cavett, set design by Anna Louizos, costumes by Cynthia Nordstorm, video design by Caite Hevner, lighting by Ryan O’Gara, sound by Tony Gayle, and casting by Pearson Casting.
