👀 The live filming of BONNIE AND CLYDE THE MUSICAL had it’s New York premiere in June 2024 and now it’s going to hit the big screen in the UK in 2025! It will be shown in select Showcase Cinemas in the UK on 1 and 4 May 2025.⁠... ⁠
⁠
🌟 Michelle Blair Management client, NATALIE MCQUEEN, plays Blanche Barrow opposite Jeremy Jordan as Clyde Barrow, Francis Mayli McCann as Bonnie Parker and George Maguire as Buck Barrow.⁠
⁠
đŸ’« “.....Natalie McQueen has a giddy Megan Mullally-like energy as Buck’s wife, Blanche. Her voice, with its helium highs and guttural growls, is an exemplary comic tool, but she can turn up the heat when need be, as she does in Bonnie and Blanche’s duet, You Love Who You Love.”⁠
🌐 The Guardian ⁠
⁠
đŸ’« “...Natalie McQueen steals the scene as Buck’s wife and Clyde’s sister-in-law. A rule-laying, God-fearing, silver-tongued southern belle, she fights tooth and nail to keep Buck on an honest path. Where Bonnie ecstatically chooses “A short and loving life”, Blanche dreams of an ordinary one with an appropriately ordinary husband.”⁠
🌐 Broadway World⁠
⁠
đŸ’« “...Natalie McQueen gives a comedy masterclass as Blanche Barrow, her performance of “You’re Goin’ Back to Jail” is hilarious, as are her quips (“You can’t arrest a man for receiving mail”), but she also delivers on those softer moments such as in the duet “You Love Who You Love” with McCann (perhaps one of the best female duets in musical theatre).”⁠

The reviews are in for WHITE CHRISTMAS at the Mill at Sonning featuring our fabulous CONNOR HUGHES playing the role of Phil Davis and GRACE CHAN!! ❄

“The fresh-faced youth of Connor Hughes as Phil Davis (the Danny Kaye role in the film) mitigates against the character’s careless womanising. In a beautifully judged performance, Hughes invests him with authentic warmth and a slight air of goofy bewilderment, and he’s a fabulous hoofer with a surprisingly powerful voice.”

Michelle had a wonderul evening 2025 season launch last night

The NYMT mission is “...to provide children and young people with the best opportunities to inspire and shape the future of music theatre” and oh my goodness they are TRULY doing that and with bells on!! ⁠
⁠
Our brilliant client LEE FREEMAN was the Musical Director for the NYMT production of Our House that was performed earlier this year and it was wonderful to see him with director Nick Evans and Choreographer Simon Hardwick - all who were at the launch to support this brilliant charity and the stunning work it does to produce dynamic, safe and nurturing platforms for children and young people to grow and flourish with music theatre. ⁠
⁠
It seemed very fitting for a reunion at an event championing the next generation of musical theatre performers when Michelle bumped into her former student - Craig Stein - who she taught at The Sylvia Young Theatre School. Full circle moment. ⁠
⁠
The young people are our future.. let’s champion and raise them high so that they may flourish and fly ... thank you NYMT and congratulations to wonderful performers from PLATFORM. ⁠
