The show will feature Abbey Norman as Sophie, Jenanne Redman as Mummy, Benjamin Stone as Daddy, Milkman, Postman and Tiger, Myles Waby as Understudy and Sarah Horton as alternative Sophie/Mummy.
The creative team includes designer Susie Caulcutt, associate director/choreographer Emma Clayton, music arranger and supervisor Peter Pontzen, with magical illusions by Scott Penrose, lighting design by Tony Simpson and sound design by Shock Productions.
