Alex Wood, Writing for WhatsOnStage:
“The UK premiere of Fly More Than You Fall, a new musical with book and lyrics by Eric Holmes (Wild About You) and music and lyrics by Nat Zegree (Million Dollar Quartet), will take place this autumn.
The show tells the story of Malia, a young girl whose life is upended when her mother is diagnosed with terminal cancer. As Malia copes with the emotional challenges that follow, she finds strength and solace in her writing.
The production’s creative team includes associate director Georgie Rankcom, movement director Heather Douglas, with orchestrations and arrangements by Daniel Edmonds. Pearson Casting CDG is handling casting, with Marc David Levine serving as the lead producer.
Directed by Christian Durham, it will run at Southwark Playhouse Elephant from 18 October to 23 November.”
