Set in Victorian East London, Whitechapel tells the story of
loves and lovers and mis-matched partners. With a host of divinely
decadent characters, it plots the story of a passionate love
affair between the impoverished yet beautiful Annie, and Eddie,
a man with very royal connections. Their dreams for the future
are shattered by the prejudice, sacrifice and pain they endure
as the dark wheels of the Victorian Establishment are turning
and
will stop at nothing short of crushing them.
From the streets of London’s East End to the shores
of
Southern France, Whitechapel takes us on a
musical journey within
a score of haunting
melodic ballads, music-hall song and big
chorus
numbers. Original orchestrations and a thrilling
score
make this one of the most exciting musical
projects to emerge
in recent years. Be one of the
first to view this musical showcase
ahead of the
full stage show.
