The band's story is told through an incredible back catalogue of chart toppers, including “You Really Got Me,” “Lola,” and “All Day and All of the Night.” Sunny Afternoon will give audiences an unforgettable celebration of the music, life, and the band that changed it all.
Playing The Kinks at the heart of this musical is Danny Horn (The Bah Humbug Club, Lichfield Garrick) as Ray Davies, Oliver Hoare (Anthony and Cleopatra, Chichester Festival Theatre) as Dave Davies, Harry Curley (Sing Street, Lyric Hammersmith) as Peter Quaife and Zakarie Stokes (professional debut) as Mick Avory.
Returning from the original Hampstead Theatre and West End companies are Ben Caplan as ‘Eddie Kassner’ and Tam Williams as ‘Grenville Collins’ and, from the original UK Tour are Victoria Anderson as ‘Gwen’, Deryn Edwards as ‘Mrs. Davies’, Joseph Richardson as ‘Robert Wace’, Lisa Wright as ‘Rasa’ and James Hudson. The company is completed by Alicia Ally, Morgan Burgess, James Chisholm, Phil Corbitt, Alasdair Craig, Dominic Gee-Burch, Kristian Jacobs, Robin Johnson, Sorrel Jordan, Jada Langley, Timothy Roberts, Georgiana Wainwright-Jones and Emily Whitby-Samways.
