“Been a long time coming…” Producer David Treatman has announced today that Bonnie & Clyde The Musical: Filmed Live will be available to stream online on-demand…
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.
Jeremy Jordan:
“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.”
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. After extended seasons at London’s Arts Theatre, the show then transferred to the Garrick Theatre before heading out on a nationwide tour where the production is currently playing in 30 venues across the UK & Ireland. The West End cast album was released in July and is available on all streaming platforms.
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.
Frances Mayli McCann:
“Having the opportunity to play Bonnie Parker in the premiere of Bonnie and Clyde in London has been one of the highlights of my career, and playing the role alongside the original Clyde, Broadway star Jeremy Jordan was such an incredible experience. I’m thrilled and excited to share our concert from the Drury Lane Theatre in the West End, with audiences across the world!”
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.
Bonnie & Clyde The Musical is the story of two small-town kids from the middle of nowhere who became the biggest folk heroes in all America. They craved adventure – and each other. Fearless, shameless, and alluring, this is the electrifying story of love, adventure and crime that captured the attention of an entire nation.
Bonnie and Clyde The Musical: Filmed Live features music by Frank Wildhorn, lyrics by Don Black, a book by Ivan Menchell. The film is produced by David Treatman and Brett Sullivan, with executive producers Max Johnson, Adam Paulden, Darren Bell, and Jason Haigh-Ellery.
Pre-orders for the filmed version of the concert can be made now at www.bonnieclydelive.com. The movie will be accessible from Monday 24 June 2024.
