Dave Willetts, Marti Webb Set for UK Tour of 42nd Street

West End stars Dave Willetts and Marti Webb are set to lead the cast of the UK tour of 42nd Street, which will run June-December at 23 venues throughout the country. The show’s author and Broadway director Mark Bramble will direct the tour.

With book by Michael Stewart and Mark Bramble, lyrics by Al Dubin, and music by Harry Warren and based on the novel by Bradford Ropes, 42nd Street is an inspiring tale of small town Peggy Sawyer’s rise from chorus line girl to Broadway star.

The design team will feature Douglas W Schmidt (set design), Roger Kirk (costume design), David Howe (lighting design), and Ross Portway and Jon Higson (sound design).

Choreography is by Graeme Henderson and musical supervision by Gareth Williams.
