Meet the sensational kids starring in the new West End production of Jason Robert Brown's 13 the musical now playing at the Ambassadors Theatre.

13 is a unique musical in that its cast and band is almost entirely made of teenagers.

13 The Musical is an hilarious, coming-of-age musical about discovering that “cool” is sometimes where we least expect it. Geek. Poser. Jock. Beauty Queen. Wannabe. These are the labels that can last a lifetime. With an unforgettable rock score, 13 The Musical  is a musical about fitting in – and standing out! Evan Goldman is plucked from his fast-paced, preteen New York City life and plopped into a sleepy Indiana town following his parents divorce. Surrounded by an array of simpleminded middle school students, he needs to establish his place in the popularity pecking order. Can he situate himself on a comfortable link of the food chain... or will he dangle at the end with the outcasts Composed of a precocious cast, no character in 13 is older than the show’s title.

13 is directed by Ewan Jones and presented by the British Theatre Academy.

Until 23 August 2017.
