An Officer and a Gentleman UK Tour

Jamie Wilson and Curve are delighted to announce the UK Premiere of “An Office and a Gentleman - The Musical” which will open at Curve on 6 April 2018 before playing at theatres across the UK and in Ireland until 15 September 2018. The show comes to the UK following its World Premiere in Sydney.

This brand-new musical is based on the 1982 Oscar-winning film starring Richard Gere which tells the story of Zack Mayo who is in training to become a US Navy Pilot. When Zack rolls into boot camp with a bit too much of a swagger, drill Sergeant Foley doesn’t make life easy for him. When he falls for local girl Paula Pokrifki and tragedy befalls his friend and fellow candidate, Zack realises the importance of love and friendship and finds the courage to be himself and win the heart of the woman he loves. It’s only then he can truly become both an Officer and a Gentleman.

The musical includes the hit song from the movie Up Where We Belong along, with 80’s classics such as ‘Alone’, ‘Don’t Cry Out Loud’, ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’, ‘Toy Soldiers’ and ‘Material Girl’ and features one of the most iconic romantic scenes ever portrayed on screen.

“An Officer And A Gentleman” is one of the highest grossing films of all time. The screenplay is by writer and director Douglas Day Stewart which was based on his personal experience as a Naval Officer Candidate. The book was co-written by Douglas and Sharleen Cooper Cohen.

An Officer And A Gentleman is produced by Jamie Foster, directed by Nikolai Foster, choreography by Kate Prince, musical supervision by Sarah Travis, lighting design by Ben Cracknell, sound design by Tom Marshall and designed by Michael Taylor.
