PlayWell Productions have today released production photos for Live To Tell: (A Proposal For) The Madonna Musical by Brian Mullin, which runs at the Omnibus Theatre until 18th February before a second Off West End run at Camden People’s Theatre from 4th-15th April.
Live To Tell: (A Proposal For) The Madonna Musical follows the quest of Brian, a Madonna superfan living with HIV, as he pitches himself to Madonna to create a jukebox musical based on her songs, whilst also facing what it means in his own life to survive with HIV.
Living in a disabled body, Brian wants to reinvent himself — just like Madonna.
He can’t live to tell a tale of jukebox triumph until he confronts the stigma and side effects of long-term survival. Just like a prayer, this show will take you there.
The production will run at the Omnibus Theatre from 7th-18th February followed by a run at Camden People’s Theatre from 4th-15th April.
A digital version of the autobiographical show was commissioned by Battersea Arts Centre in 2021 and had previously been performed in development phases at scratch nights at The Yard Theatre and New Wolsey Theatre.
Brian Mullin will play the self-inspired role of Brian with Dan de la Motte playing all other characters and Nadya Ginsburg (2 Broke Girls, RuPaul’s Drag Race) providing the voice of Madonna.
Joining Mullin on the creative team are Deirdre McLaughlin as Director, Josh Anio Grigg as Digital & Sound Designer, Alex Thomas as Lighting Designer and Steph J Weller for PlayWell Productions as Producer.
