You Won't Succeed On Broadway If You Don't Have Any Jews at the St James Theatre

Monty Python joked in Spamalot that "You won't succeed on Broadway, If you don't have any Jews". Now, a new review shows the valued contributions of Jewish composers and writers to the Broadway musical. This joyous celebration is a musical journey from the 1930's to the present, showcasing the fascinating stories of some of Broadway's greatest composers from George and Ira Gershwin through to the composers of contemporary musicals like Rent, Hairspray and Parade.

You Won't Succeed On Broadway, If You Don't Have Any Jews will feature Lloyd Daniels (Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat), Sarah Earnshaw (Spamalot) and Sophie Evans (The Wizard Of Oz).

Producers, Collaborative Artists said:- "We are thrilled to introduce our phenomenal cast of seasoned West End actors, who all share a passion for musical theatre and the groundbreaking works of these sensational composers. We, at Collaborative Artists, feel it is imperative to display the show’s message to audiences all over the world and believe that theatre should go far beyond entertainment! Bringing the show back to the West End means the world to us and we can't wait to dazzle the St James with a splash of Broadway." You Won't Succeed On Broadway If You Don't Have Any Jews runs from 25th August - 5 September 2015 at the St James Theatre.
