Rosie will be directed and choreographed by Cressida Carré with assistant director and choreographer Charlotte Scott, set design by Steve Howell, lighting design by Jamie Platt, sound design by Paul Smith, costume supervision by Rachel Perry, props supervision by Katie Balmforth, musical direction by Yshani Perinpanayagam, assistant musical direction by Erika Gundesen, production management by Pete Kramer and casting by Sarah-Jane Price.
Based on an original concept by composer Chris Broom, the musical which features music and lyrics by Broom, details the incredible true story of Miss Rosie Boote – the convent-educated woman who left Ireland behind to pursue fame and fortune on the West End stage in Edwardian London.
A studio cast album for Rosie, released in 2024, was well-received, attracting millions of online streams, with songs from the show including ‘Starlight’, ‘Suddenly’ and ‘Broken Dreams’ winning six international songwriting awards.
