George Stiles and Anthony Drewe

25 Years of Stiles and Drewe

Celebrating 25 years of songwriting by the Olivier Award winning duo of musical theatre composer George Stiles and lyricist Anthony Drewe, A Spoonful of Stiles & Drewe is a one night only charity gala performance at Her Majesty’s Theatre in the West End on Sunday 6th July, in support of Mercury Musical Developments, a unique organisation working to nurture new British musical theatre writing.

In the show the audience will visit Peter Pan’s Neverland, the farmyard of Honk! and the fairytale jungle of Rudyard Kipling’s Just So. Add an excursion with the world’s most famous nanny Mary Poppins, an exclusive preview of their new show Soho Cinders and world premières of even more brand new material and A Spoonful of Stiles & Drewe promises to surprise and delight in equal measure. It will also feature special guest appearances by Stiles and Drewe themselves.

It will feature a cast including Olivier Award winners Joanna Riding, Clive Rowe and Leanne Jones, TV favourites Helena Blackman and Daniel Boys, stars of Wicked, James Gillan and Oliver Tompsett, Mary Poppins star Scarlett Strallen, Julie Atherton who originated the roles of Kate Monster and Lucy the Slut in Avenue Q, Jerry Springer legend Alison Jiear and musical theatre stalwart Claire Moore.

Tickets for the show cost from £20.00 to £45.00, with VIP Seats (including a Premium Stalls seat and after-show party pass) at £100.00. The show starts at 7.30 on Sunday 6th July at Her Majesty’s Theatre, Haymarket.

A Spoonful of Stiles & Drewe is produced by Neil Eckersley and Paul Spicer for Speckulation Entertainment with creative direction by Paul Spicer, staging by Chris Hocking, musical supervision by George Stiles, musical direction by David Randall, choreography by Rebecca Giacopazzi and sound by Mark Dunne.
