It has been announced that, following a limited run at London’s Peacock Theatre in March, I’M EVERY WOMAN THE MUSICAL will play Belgrade Theatre, Coventry from 1–4 April and Congress Theatre, Eastbourne from 7–11 April.
Multi-platinum recording artist and award-winning actress Alexandra Burke* will play Chaka at all venues.
I’M EVERY WOMAN THE MUSICAL is the powerful and inspiring life story of the award-winning, multi-platinum selling, global icon herself.
The new musical which reveals the woman behind the diva, and her rise to stardom has a book by Nia T. Hill, direction by Racky Plews, musical supervision by Mark Crossland, choreography by Ebony Clarke, set design by Sara Perks, sound by Chris Whybrow , costumes by Natalie Pryce, hair & makeup design by JJ Wigs, and casting by Debbie O’Brien.
The fame, the fire, the fight - this is her story. I’m Every Woman: The Musical brings to life the untold story of Chaka Khan, one of the most influential voices of our time. Unapologetically bold and deeply human, the production explores her unwavering passion for civil rights, her defiance in the face of a toxic music industry, the harrowing road through addiction, and the unrelenting pressure of being a working mother. At its core, it’s a story of resilience, purpose, and power - a celebration of the woman behind the legend.
I’M EVERY WOMAN THE MUSICAL will feature Chaka Khan’s much-loved songs released as a solo artist and lead singer of the band 'Rufus' such as ‘I Feel For You’, ‘Tell Me Something Good’, ‘Ain’t Nobody’, ‘Sweet Thing’, ‘Higher Love’ and ‘Through The Fire’. The show, which is a journey of music, love and betrayal has a book that includes an array of Chaka’s famous friends from Joni Mitchell and Prince, to Stevie Wonder and Steve Winwood.
*Please note, Alexandra will perform on 2, 3 and 4 (evening only) April in Coventry and all shows apart from matinees in Eastbourne.
In London, Jordan Frazier will play Chaka on 12, 18 and 25 March.
