West End stars Daniel Boys (Spamalot, Avenue Q and The Boys in the Band in the West End and Marvin in Falsettos) and Emily Tierney (Glinda in Wicked, Molly in Ghost, Super Hot Lady in Eugenius) are to star in the European premiere of Leonard Bernstein’s New York at London’s Waterloo East Theatre from 26 October to 14 November 2021.

Leonard Bernstein’s New York is a joyous musical revue exploring the music of Bernstein and the city that inspired so much of his life and work. From his famous friendships with Betty Comden and Adolph Green, Stephen Sondheim, Jerome Robbins and Aaron Copland to his ascendance as one of the great American composers, it is packed with beloved hits from shows including West Side Story, On the Town and Wonderful Town.

Director Gerald Armin said: “Leonard Bernstein’s New York has rarely been performed since its New York premiere in 2008 and I am thrilled to present the European premiere at Waterloo East Theatre with the incredibly talented West End stars Daniel Boys and Emily Tierney.”

Armin is joined in the creative team by musical director Archie Combe, company stage manager Gareth McLeod, lighting designer Jonathan Pearson and casting director Andrew Lynford CSA.

Presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals, Leonard Bernstein’s New York is conceived and arranged by Rob Fisher with a book by Fisher, Sammy Buck and Garth Edwin Sunderland.
