This sumptuous new production is brought to life by an multi-award-winning creative team, including renowned director Rachel Kavanaugh, legendary choreographer Anthony Van Laast, with musical supervision by Stephen Ridley. Audiences will be immersed in a dazzling world of champagne-sparkled evenings, razor-sharp comedy, and the timeless sophistication of Cole Porter in one of the great classic musicals of all time.
With music and lyrics by Cole Porter and a book by Arthur Kopit, this glittering new production promises a heady cocktail of romance, wit, mistaken identity and irresistible musical charm.
Producer Sir Howard Panter said: “We are delighted that Carly Mercedes Dyer will continue with High Society for the UK tour, bringing her exceptional talent and charisma to audiences across the country. We are equally thrilled to welcome Josefina Gabrielle to the company whose extraordinary warmth, elegance and experience make her a wonderful addition to the cast. Together they will make this a truly outstanding company - I know audiences across the UK are going to love this glorious production.”
