A Star-Studded West End Cast for Harold Fry
The heartwarming and deeply moving musical The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry has announced that Noah Mullins will join Mark Addy and Jenna Russell for its West End run at the Theatre Royal Haymarket, from 29 January to 18 April 2026.
Mullins will play The Balladeer, joining the five-star production that critics have called “pitch-perfect” (The Times).
Noah Mullins is no stranger to the stage. Making their professional debut at 19 as Riff in West Side Story, they have since starred in La Cage Aux Folles, Banjo Paterson, and the original company of Jagged Little Pill. In 2024, Mullins received acclaim for performances in Rent and Hadestown, showcasing their extraordinary range and presence in musical theatre.
A Journey of Hope and Renewal
Adapted by Rachel Joyce from her beloved novel, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry tells the story of an ordinary man who embarks on an extraordinary walk across England. His journey of self-discovery and love is set to a “ravishing score” (The Times) by chart-topping musician Passenger, with direction by Katy Rudd (The Ocean at the End of the Lane).
Rachel Joyce said:
“I couldn’t be more thrilled that this joyful show has found a home in the West End. I never imagined, when I first wrote the book, that it would become a musical one day, and never in my wildest dreams did I think it might find a home in one of my favourite theatres.”
With Mark Addy, Jenna Russell, and Noah Mullins leading the cast, this production promises to be a heartfelt and uplifting London theatre experience and a reminder that it is never too late to start again.
