George Takei's uplifting musical Allegiance is having its UK Premiere at the Charing Cross Theatre, London from 7 January 2023.

Inspired by the life story of renowned actor and activist George Takei, the musical Allegiance, follows the story of the Kimura family and their struggles in the aftermath of the attack on Pearl Harbour.

In a world ravaged by the effects of war, Allegiance reveals the courage and loyalty of family in a time of great injustice as 120,000 Japanese Americans are forced into internment camps, testing the power and resilience of the human spirit.

Sam Kimura (Telly Leung) believes enlisting is the way to demonstrate his patriotism and win the freedom of his people. His sister Kei (Aynrand Ferrer) sides against him and joins the resistance movement in the camp. Soon the political conflict is mirrored within the Kimura family, leading brother and sister down starkly different paths as they decide where their allegiance lies. Joining George Takei from the 2015 Broadway production of Allegiance is US actor, TV and Broadway star Telly Leung, best known to UK audiences as Wes, the Warbler on TV’s ‘Glee’ and to Broadway audiences for the title role in ‘Aladdin’. His other Broadway and US national touring credits include ‘Flower Drum Song’, ‘Pacific Overtures’, ‘Wicked’ (Boq, original Chicago company) and Angel in ‘Rent’ at the Hollywood Bowl, directed by Neil Patrick Harris. Aynrand Ferrer has just played the alternate Kim in ‘Miss Saigon’ in Vienna. All three are making their London stage debuts.
