Queen of The Mist Brockley Jack Studio Theatre

Pint of Wine Theatre Company, an innovative theatre company providing opportunities for artists, technicians and practitioners to challenge the conventions on how theatre should be presented, will be presenting the UK professional premier of Michael John LaChiusa’s Queen of the Mist at the Jack Studio Theatre.

Queen of the Mist is based on the astounding and outrageous true story of Anna Edson Taylor, who in 1901 on her 63rd birthday set out to be the first person to survive a trip over Niagara Falls in a barrel of her own design. This story explores the fickle world of celebrity and sensationalism at the turn of the century with an unconventional heroine determined not to live an ordinary life. With a soaring score that incorporates turn of the century themes with LaChiusa’s insightful and engaging style, this award-winning musical is the story of how one woman risked death so that she could live.

The cast includes Trudi Camilleri (Ragtime and Death Takes a Holiday, Charing Cross Theatre) as Anna Edson Taylor, with Will Arundell (Mack & Mabel, London Musical Theatre Orchestra), Emily Juler (Jerry Springer: The Opera, Stockwell Playhouse), Emma Ralston (Bananaman: The Musical, Southwark Playhouse), Tom Blackmore (Grindr: The Opera, Above the Stag), Conor McFarlane (Assassins, Pleasance Theatre) and Andrew Carter (Choir of Man, Edinburgh Fringe and World Tour).

       

This production marks the UK Professional Premiere of the show under the direction of Dom O’Hanlon and award-winning musical director Jordan Li-Smith (The Assassination Of Katie Hopkins (Theatr Clwyd) and Ragtime (Charing Cross Theatre). The original 2011 Off-Broadway production won the Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding New Off-Broadway Musical and was nominated for six Drama Desk Awards, including Outstanding Musical.

The production will be directed by Dom O’Hanlon, with musical direction by Jordan Li-Smith (Ragtime, Charing Cross Theatre; Off West End Award for Best Musical Director and The Assassination Of Katie Hopkins, Theatr Clwyd)
