She has won numerous awards in her career, including five Tonys and two Oliviers for her outstanding work on shows such as *The Producers*, *Showboat*, *Oklahoma!*, and many more.

The critically acclaimed cast from Chichester Festival Theatre's production of *Crazy For You* are also transferring to the Gillian Lynne Theatre.

When Bobby Child reluctantly heads to Nevada, his showbiz dreams could still become a reality. Charlie Stemp plays Bobby in the Chichester Festival Theatre production of the Gershwin classic. Get *Crazy For You* tickets on London Theatre.

The original Broadway production of *Crazy For You* premiered in 1992 and went on to win several Tony Awards, including the award for Best Musical. The production ran for over 1,600 performances and has since been staged around the world and become a popular choice for local productions and school shows. 

Director and choreographer Susan Stroman worked closely with book writer Ken Ludwig and the creative team to create a show that paid homage to classic musicals with the Gershwins’ music, while also having a new and fresh tone. Stroman returns to the show with this production, marking her third time directing a musical in London. She also has directed *The Producers* in 2004 and *Young Frankenstein* in 2017. She also has directed plays in London such as *The Scottsboro Boys* in 2014. 

*Crazy For You* isn’t the only musical that features songs by the Gershwins. *My One and Only* is also an original show that incorporates existing music by the songwriters, including “'S Wonderful," "Funny Face," and "Strike Up the Band."

The original Broadway production of *My One and Only* premiered in 1983 and starred Tommy Tune and Twiggy. The show won several Tony Awards, including Best Actor in a Musical for Tune and Best Choreography for Tune and Thommie Walsh.

## What to Watch For

- *Crazy For You* is inspired by the 1930s musical *Girl Crazy* that Ken Ludwig saw in Washington, D.C. He was in awe at the show's energy and humour, but felt that the story was outdated and in need of modernization. 
- Charlie Stemp, who stars as Bobby in this production, made his West End debut as an ensemble member in *Wicked*. He has also starred in *Half a Sixpence*, *Mary Poppins*, and *Hello, Dolly!*
- The original Broadway Production of *Crazy For You* featured a cast of over 40 performers, including a live horse on stage for the number “Stiff Upper Lip.” The original horse's name was Polly. 
- Crazy For You won the Tony Award for Best Musical in 1992, and beat out some tough competition including *The Secret Garden*, *Falsettos*, and *Jelly’s Last Jam*. The show also won three other Tony Awards that year, including Best Choreography, Best Costume Design, and Best Features Actor in a Musical for Scott Wise. 
- *They All Laughed* was the original title for Crazy For You and was intended to be a tribute to the Gershwins’ music, but deemed too dark and complicated. After many workshops and rewrites, the show was renamed *Crazy For You* and streamlined to focus on the love story.

The Gillian Lynne Theatre originally opened in 1847 as the Mogul Music Hall. From 1919 to 1965, it was named the Winter Garden Theatre, but after renovations, the theatre opened as the New London Theatre in 1973. 

The theatre housed Andrew Lloyd Webber’s *Cats*, which was the longest-running musical in West End history when it closed in 2002.  It was also used as a television studio, and was the home of Masters Snooker for two years.

Since the closure of *Cats*, the theatre has hosted productions of Lloyd Webber’s *Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat*, *School of Rock*, and *Cinderella*.

In 2018, Andrew Lloyd Webber announced the theatre would be renamed the Gillian Lynne Theatre, the first London theatre to be named after a woman. Lynne worked on productions with the English National Opera, Royal Shakespeare Company and many West End and Broadway shows. She collaborated with Andrew Lloyd Webber on *Cats, The Phantom of the Opera* and *Aspects of Love.* 

## Gillian Lynne Theatre Seating Information
