Thespie to stream ‘Reunited’ concert series in December

Four ensemble concerts will be premiered on the theatre discovery site.

UPDATE: 2 December

After a weekend of livestreamed performances by the original Six queens on Thespie, a series of reunion concerts has been confirmed. Four concerts will be available to watch between 3-21 December, bringing casts of Six, & Juliet as well as critically-acclaimed stars together.

Thespie creative producer and Olivier Award-nominated actress Aimie Atkinson said: "We're thrilled to be bringing you our first shows—high-energy, joyful concerts with great production values and astonishing vocal performances. I am so in awe of the level of talent working with us to make these December shows incredibly special."

The series begins with a celebratory concert dedicated to Stephen Schwartz. All nine cast members have appeared in Wicked at the Apollo Victoria Theatre since its 2006 premiere: Nikki Bentley, Sophie Evans, Alice Fearn, Alexia Khadime, Melanie La Barrie, Carl Man, Dianne Pilkington, Liam Tamne and Oliver Tompsett. Khadime and Tamne can currently be seen in The Prince of Egypt, making its world premiere at the Dominion Theatre. Stephen Schwartz will also appear in the concert, accompanying himself in a performance of "Corner from the Sky" from Pippin, with the concert available to watch on 3 December. 

Speaking about the concert, Schwartz said: "Since right now we can't see Wicked, The Prince of Egypt and other live shows, I'm grateful to Thespie for offering the Reunited series of concerts and I'm excited to have these amazing artists singing my songs in this program."

On 10 December, original company members of & Juliet will sing in Oops!... I Streamed It Again; a concert jampacked with rock, pop and musical theatre hits. Cassidy Janson will take part, recently Jordan Luke Gage, Tim Mahendran, Grace Mouat and Oliver Tompsett.

The original West End cast of Six will reunite once more for Girl Power, available to watch from 17 December. Emulating girl bands throughout the decades, the seven actresses will all share the mic. Girl Power stars Creative Producer Aimie Atkinson, alongside Alexia McIntosh, Grace Mouat, Millie O'Connell, Natalie Paris, Maiya Quansah-Breed and Jarneia Richard-Noel.

All three companies will come together for the final concert, All I Want For Christmas Is Theatre. Expect an array of Christmas songs of all styles, which can be watched from 21 December.

Tickets for all four concerts, as well as more information about the concerts are available here.
