Chosen
Imagine accidentally killing Harry Potter, Luke Skywalker, or Jesus and having to take their place.
Chosen is a pop-rock comedy musical by Taiyo Yoshida & Dominic Varney about Sue, an IT Support Technician in her 60s, who wakes from a coma to discover half the world has been zombified.
After accidentally killing the prophesied 'Chosen One', Sue must assume their identity and save humanity herself.
As the grand master of musicals, Stephen Sondheim, once said, ‘Musical comedies aren’t written, they’re rewritten’.
REWRITES showcases new musicals at the start of their journey to the stage – a platform that puts shows on their feet and in front of an audience for the first time. A mix of works-in-progress, concert performances and short preview-style ‘curtain raisers’, you will get to be a part of something special, right at the beginning!
REWRITES is a partnership programme led by The Lowry, Birmingham Hippodrome, MAST Mayflower Studios and Norwich Theatre.
Initiated by The Lowry in 2017, musicals featured previously in REWRITES include: No Miracles Here by The Letter Room, A Super Happy Story (About Feeling Sad) by Jon Brittain and Matthew Floyd Jones (Kathy & Stella) , A Mother’s Song by Finn Anderson and Tania Azevedo and Snowflake by Lewis Cornay.
The hit West End musical Operation Mincemeat started out at a scratch event as part of REWRITES.
