Bronco Billy – The Musical makes its London debut at the Charing Cross Theatre in January 2024. Book Bronco Billy – The Musical tickets now on London Theatre.
The year is 1979, and a band of travelling Wild West performers skilled in sharpshooting, trick riding, and disco dancing face the challenges of their nomadic lifestyle. Their world is turned on its head when Bronco Billy, their charismatic leader, crosses paths with Antoinette Lilly, a determined heiress from Manhattan who is on the run. Bronco Billy – The Musical is an uplifting show about love, reinvention, family, and pursuing one’s dreams.
Directed by Hunter Bird, the U.K. premiere of Bronco Billy – The Musical is led by Emily Benjamin as the runaway heiress, Antoinette. She is known for alternating the role of Sally Bowles in Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club. She stars alongside Tarinn Callender (Hamilton, The Drifters Girl) as Bronco Billy and Victoria Hamilton-Barritt (Hex) as Constance.
The musical has a book written by Dennis Hacklin, with music and lyrics by Chip Rosenbloom and John Torres. Michele Brourman provides additional lyrics.
Before its U.K. debut, the musical premiered at the Skylight Theatre in Los Angeles in 2019. The Los Angeles Times raved: “The tone playfully artificial, but the material, cotton-candyish as it is, manages to tug at the heartstrings with its notions about dreamers intent on making their lives — and, possibly, the world — a little bit better.”
Bronco Billy – The Musical in London is a thrilling musical you won’t want to miss. Book tickets for Bronco Billy – The Musical on London Theatre.
