THE award-winning Sadler’s Wells resident company, ZooNation, brings Some Like It Hip Hop to the Birmingham Hippodrome next month.
The Hippodrome will be the first ever venue to host this brand new production from Tuesday, October 11 to Saturday, October 15.
Created by ZooNation founder Kate Prince and Felix Harrison, the show is the company’s first full-length production since the award-winning West End smash hit, Into the Hoods.
Inspired by Billy Wilder’s much loved film and Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, Some Like It Hip Hop is a comical tale of love, mistaken identity and cross-dressing; all played out in ZooNation’s trademark style of hip hop, comedy and physical theatre.
Directed by Sadler’s Wells associate artist Prince, with original music by DJ Walde and Josh Cohen, the cast includes Tommy Franzen (So You Think You Can Dance), Lizze Gough (So You Think You Can Dance) and Teneisha Bonner (StreetDance 3D, Shoes, Into the Hoods).
IMPORTANT NOTE: The venue is sorry to announce that the performances scheduled to take place on Tuesday and Wednesday, October 11 and 12 have been cancelled due to unforseen circumstances.
If anyone has booked tickets for either of these performances the Ticket Sales department will be in touch to offer an exchange or refund.
Anyone with any queries in the meantime, can contact the Hippodrome on 0844 338 5000.
