The Cockpit Theatre production of The Distance You Have Come is being revived at the West End’s Apollo Theatre for two nights only.
In a song cycle of his most acclaimed works, sung by some of the best voices in the west end, award-winning composer and lyricist Scott Alan leads us through a year in the intertwined lives of six people facing the joy and heartache of the human experience, as they each search for their own version of happiness - which is, after all, what it’s all about.
Every day we each make a series of decisions, some big and some small but all that shape our future. We are all on a journey of self-discovery, juggling life, love and loss along the way. We all have to choose the steps we take and will each meet people who will change our path forever.
The Distance You Have Come cast features Andy Coxon (West Side Story, Beautiful – The Carole King Musical); Alice Fearn (Come From Away, Wicked); Adrian Hansel (Starlight Express, Hairspray); Emma Hatton (Evita, Wicked); Dean John-Wilson (Kind and I, Aladdin) and Alexia Khadime (Prince of Egypt, Wicked).
