Full cast announced for world premiere of But I’m A Cheerleader: The Musical at the Turbine Theatre

Full cast has been announced for the world premiere of But I’m A Cheerleader: The Musical. The show will run at the Turbine Theatre from 18 February to 16 April 2022.

But I’m A Cheerleader: The Musical will feature Alice Croft as Megan, the high school senior who just loves cheerleading. She will be joined on stage by Evie Rose Lane who will play Graham, Oliver Brooks as Dad/LArry, Edward Chitticks as Jared/Rock, Damon Gould as André, Tiffany Graves as Mary Brown, Jodie Jacobs as Mom/Lloyd, Lemuel Knights as Mike, Harry Singh as Jalal, Jodie Steele as Kimberly/Hilary, Aaron Teoh as Dolph and Kia-Paris Walcott as Sinead.

But I’m A Cheerleader: The Musical tells the story of Megan, an all-American high school cheerleader who has the perfect life.

That is until she finds out her friends and family suspect her of being a lesbian and send her packing to ‘True Directions,’ a rehabilitation camp to set her straight. It is at this camp, under the strict tutelage of headmistress Mary Brown that Megan meets Graham, a sexy tomboy who shows her exactly what her ‘true direction’ is. Hilarious, irreverent, and full of heart, But I’m A Cheerleader: The Musical is a quirky coming-of-age comedy about sexual awakening and self-realization.

Paul Taylor-Mills & Bill Kenwright, in association with Adam Bialow, are presenting their new musical, based on the LIONSGATE® motion picture of the same name, directed by  Jamie Babbit and with a screenplay by Brian Wayne Peterson.

But I’m A Cheerleader: The Musical, has book and lyrics by Bill Augustin, music by Andrew Abrams and direction by Tania Azevedo. Musical direction and orchestration by Josh Sood with choreography by Alexzandra Sarmiento and set and costume design by David Shields.  Lighting by Martha Godfrey and sound design by Christ Whybrow.
