(Asian Independent)- Don’t miss your chance to come and see Bugsy Malone, Alan Parker’s world famous musical, which is coming to the Birmingham REP later this month.
The cast features a young company of 39 actors, including three teams of 7 kids, reflecting the multicultural make-up and sheer diversity, in its broadest sense, of the United Kingdom. Actors include Shaun Sharma, Amar Blackman, Mia Lakha, Isham Sankoh, Rayhaan Kufuor-Gray and Charlie Burns – to name just a handful.
Famous for casting children in adult roles, the musical is set in prohibition era New York and features a gang of mobsters, showgirls, a penniless boxer, a seductive songstress and a plethora of flying custard pies.
Bugsy Malone is a masterclass of musical comedy with one of the most joyously uplifting finales in musical theatre. Its based on the 1976 movie of the same name. Songs include the likes of “You Give A Little Love”, “My Name is Tallulah”, and “Fat Sam’s Grand Slam”.
