Jeremy Jordan led musical adaptation of Bonnie and Clyde streaming next month on demand! The musical that was filmed live back in 2022 will be available as of 24 June. Several of his original cast members will be joining him in this filmed production and fans are excited to learn that the original leading lady, Frances Mayli McCann, is also set to appear alongside her co-star.

Bonnie and Clyde The Musical was filmed and recorded live in January back in 2022. The filming was done over two performances at London’s Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Both performances were completely sold out and audiences now get to relive the show. Leading this production at the time was Jeremy Jordan as Clyde Barrow, who is currently on Broadway starring as the title role in The Great Gatsby. He also originated the role on Broadway back in 2011. But there’s no Clyde without Bonnie. Bonnie Parker was portrayed by Frances Mayli McCann who originated the role on the West End production.
Jeremy Jordan stated:
“Playing Clyde Barrow in Bonnie & Clyde The Musical has been one of the highlights of my career… I was delighted to reprise the role, alongside the fantastic Frances Mayli McCann as Bonnie, for a special concert staging at Theatre Royal Drury Lane in 2022 and am beyond thrilled to be able to share that version of the show with audiences worldwide.”

Frances McCann was just as excited for the streaming announcement saying:
“Having the opportunity to play Bonnie Parker in the premiere of Bonnie & Clyde in London has been one of the highlights of my career, and playing the role alongside the original Clyde, Broadway star Jeremy Jordan, was such an incredible experience. I’m thrilled and excited to share our concert from the Drury Lane Theatre in the West End, with audiences across the world!”

From the cast filming, we will also see George Maguire who played Buck, Natalie McQueen as Blanche, Trevor Nicholas as Preacher, Liam Tamne as Ted, and Casey Al-Shaqsy as Stella. George Maguire was most recently seen playing Vincent in Tarantino Live. Natalie McQueen can be seen in the cinema released recording of Kinky Boots where she played Lauren. Trevor Nicholas is best known for originating the role of Genie in Disney’s Aladdin on the West End but was most recently seen playing George Washington in Hamilton. Liam Tamne is perhaps best known for his performance as Ramases in The Prince of Egypt: Live from the West End. Casey Al-Shaqsy is portraying the iconic role of Elphaba as a standby in the touring production of Wicked in the UK.

Janine has always been a part of music and performing. The first show that inspired her to go into theatre was the Velveteen Rabbit which she saw as a child, and Drew works to keep that magic alive in her work. When Drew was accepted into an internship program for audio engineering at a recording studio, she jumped at the opportunity. That was at the start of 2020, and so much has happened since then, both in her career and in the world. Since then, Drew has taken several opportunities to work at recording studios, concerts, festivals, and even large theatres while spending some time on tour. Drew's favorite by far though, has been the chance to work on Broadways and West End shows, as this was a dream come true. Drew is honoured to get to share these experiences from being inside the entertainment industry.
