I Wish My Life Were Like A Musical
  • West End

I Wish My Life Were Like A Musical sets out to present everything that you could possibly want to know about being a musical theatre performer... if only there were any who would dare to admit it.

Created by iTunes comedy album chart-topper Alexander S. Bermange, and directed by Paul Foster " whose recent successes have included A Little Night Music at the Watermill Theatre andAnnie Get Your Gun at Sheffield Crucible " this thrilling new musical revue comedically covers the journey from eagerdrama school graduate right through to brattish diva, or past-it chorus member, or bitter has-been (or never-was).

Along the way, you will be privy to anecdotes, revelations and confessions " in song " that lift the lid on awful auditions,debilitating dance routines, mid-performance mishaps, and backstage backstabbing " alongside celebrations of thosemagical moments (however rare) that make it all seem worthwhile.

With an all-star cast comprised of Suzie Mathers (Wicked, Mamma Mia!), Oliver Savile (Wicked, The Phantom of theOpera), Liam Tamne (The Rocky Horror Show, The Phantom of the Opera and TVs The Voice) and Diana Vickers (Son OfA Preacher Man, The Rocky Horror Show and TVs The X Factor), this unique show will cheekily, caustically, yetaffectionately lay bare the real reasons why there's no business like show business...

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD

Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
