About the show
Ancient Greece. A time of gods, mortals… and Hercules, who isn’t quite either. But if he’s not a god, how can he possibly save the world from Hades? It’s one thing flexing those pecs, but going from zero to hero requires a different kind of strength.
It’s said that groups can get ready for a wise-cracking, column-shaking, underworld-rocking ride of adventure, self-discovery and love.
This new musical is inspired by the 1997 animated film of the same name from Walt Disney Studios. The feature film, directed by The Little Mermaid filmmakers John Musker and Ron Clements, won Best Animation Feature at the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards and was nominated for the Academy Award® for Best Original Song for Go the Distance.
With music by Alan Menken and lyrics by David Zippel, and a new book by Robert Horn and Kwame Kwei-Armah, Casey Nicholaw’s production of Hercules is also co-choreographed with Tanisha Scott.
Lead star Luke Brady is best-known for appearing in The Prince of Egypt at the Dominion Theatre, while Mae Ann Jorolan will be making her West End debut in the role of Meg.
