Producers have confirmed the complete cast for the West End premiere of To Sir, With Love- A New Musical, based on E.R. Braithwaite’s acclaimed memoir and the beloved 1967 film starring Sidney Poitier.
The story follows teacher Rick Braithwaite, a Cambridge-educated engineer and former RAF pilot, as he navigates the challenges of race, respect, and resilience in an underprivileged London school.
Making her triumphant return to the title song that made her an international star, Lulu will play Dale Evans, joined by five-time Emmy Award winner and Grammy nominee Wayne Brady in his West End musical debut as Rick Braithwaite.
The cast also features Jess Folley, George Maguire, Chelsea Halfpenny, Kara Lane, Michael Vinsen, and newcomer Elijah Millar, alongside a talented youth company from Italia Conti.
Directed by Sheldon Epps, the production features a score by John Farrar and Kara DioGuardi, choreography by Edgar Godineaux, and orchestrations by Joseph Joubert.
To Sir, With Love will play two concert performances at the Gillian Lynne Theatre on 24 November 2025.
