After more than a decade in development, Rosie will make its West End debut for a one-night-only, semi-staged, gala performance at the Adelphi Theatre early next year.

Brought to the stage by Cavendish Productions, Paul Morrisey Ltd and Darren Bell Productions, Rosie shares the remarkable true story of Miss Rosie Boote, who was raised in a convent in Ireland with a dream of becoming a star on the West End stage in Edwardian London. It’s a thrilling tale of passion, scandal, and courageous determination.

The West End run comes after a studio cast album for Rosie, written by composer Chris Broom, was released in 2024. It received great acclaim, amassing millions of online streams, with songs from the show, including the much loved "Starlight", "Suddenly" and "Broken Dreams", winning six International Songwriting Awards.

Lucy Thomas, who starred on ITV1's The Voice Kids at the age of 14, will star in the title role. Further casting and creatives are to be announced.

Rosie will play at the Adelphi Theatre, home of Back to the Future The Musical, on 17 March 2026.
