West End Does: Christmas in Oz Casting Announced

Monday 7 October 2024


West End Does: Christmas is returning this December, and this year, it’s bringing a delightful Oz-themed twist to the festivities. The concert will blend holiday classics with beloved songs from The Wizard of Oz and Wicked, just as the film adaptation of Wicked prepares to grace UK cinemas a few days before the event, making for perfect timing.

The concerts will feature two choirs and a full West End orchestra, all under the direction of musical maestro Samuel Wilson. This year’s impressive lineup includes notable musical theatre stars, particularly alumni from Wicked: Louise Dearman, Sophie Evans, Alice Fearn, Oliver Tompsett, Liam Tamne, and Claudia Kariuki, who have all played key roles in the production.

Hosting the event will be Rob Houchen and Matt Lucas, both known for their work in Les Misérables, promising an evening filled with festive cheer and theatrical magic.

Produced by Chorus Productions Ltd, West End Does: Christmas in Oz will take place in two concerts at Cadogan Hall in London on Sunday, December 1, 2024, at 2:30 PM and 6:30 PM. Tickets are available now through the Cadogan Hall website, so be sure to secure yours early for this festive celebration!
