Further casting has been announced for To Maury, With Love, the one-night-only West End concert celebrating the 80th birthday of composer and lyricist Maury Yeston.

Graham Bickley, Rob Houchen and Kelly Mathieson will join the previously announced Ramin Karimloo for the concert at Theatre Royal Drury Lane on Sunday 22 February 2026.

The event celebrates the work of the multi-Tony Award-winning composer behind shows including Titanic the Musical, Nine, Grand Hotel and Phantom.

       

Directed by Thom Southerland and produced by Danielle Tarento, To Maury, With Love will feature a selection of Yeston’s most loved music alongside never-before-heard songs and a specially written overture for the occasion.

Tarento and Southerland have previously collaborated on several UK productions of Yeston’s work, including the London premieres of Titanic the Musical and Death Takes a Holiday, as well as a critically acclaimed revival of Grand Hotel.

The concert will include music from Titanic the Musical, Nine and Grand Hotel, as well as Phantom and other works from across Yeston’s career.

Graham Bickley has a long association with Yeston’s work and most recently toured as Captain EJ Smith in Titanic the Musical in 2023.

Rob Houchen has previously appeared as Frederick Fleet in Titanic the Musical and starred in the West End premiere of Titanique.

Kelly Mathieson is best known for her award-winning run as Christine Daaé in The Phantom of the Opera in the West End and has since built a significant concert career.

       

Ramin Karimloo recently appeared in the Encores production of Titanic the Musical in New York and performed as Guido Contini in Nine in concert at Hope Mill Theatre.

The concert will feature a 30-piece London Musical Theatre Orchestra and a choir of graduating Musical Theatre MA students from the Royal Academy of Music, conducted by Mark Aspinall.

Danielle Tarento said: “My working relationship and friendship with Maury is one of the great joys of my life. His musicals resonate so deeply with me and have framed so much of the past 15 years of my career. To be able to celebrate his 80th birthday in such a significant way is a privilege and an honour.”

All profits from the concert will be donated to Bowel Cancer UK, supporting the work of the charity.

Final casting is still to be announced, with further details to follow.
