AVALON: A New Musical
Be the FIRST to see a sneak peek of the new folk-pop musical, written and created by Callum Shannon. The folklore, fables, poetry, and mythology of Arthurian Legend come to life in this vibrant retelling of King Arthur’s journey to Avalon. This first-look concert marks the first developmental presentation of the West End and Broadway aimed musical. We’d love for our audience to be filled with musical enthusiasts, potential collaborators, and theatre professionals who are excited about discovering exciting new material.
Newcomer Joshua Edge, will lead this 90 minute concert presentation, alongside Danielle Hope (BBC’s Over The Rainbow, Les Misérables, Grease, The Last Five Years, Kinky Boots), Courtney Stapleton (Beauty and the Beast, Six, Dear Evan Hansen, Love Never Dies in Concert), and Paige Peddie (Oklahoma, The Book of Mormon, Dreamgirls, The Lion King). Rounding out the cast is Jake Stephen, Will Silver, Kurran Dhand, Ayesha Patel, and Conor Mellor. Please note that exact casting may vary prior to the concert date.
Avalon is inspired by the most transformative and innovative storytelling in theatre, bringing a new electricity and unique voice to the legend of King Arthur and what it means to find your destiny. Avalon is not merely a tale of knights and wizards, but is a moving story of love, betrayal, and redemption. Arthur’s legacy lives on centuries after its original conception, and his story of leadership and compassion continues to inspire new generations today.
