One of the biggest hits on London's West End is Jim Vallance and Bryan Adams' adaptation of 'Pretty Woman', currently running at the Savoy Theatre. We were very fortunate to be joined by two of the show's stars: Aimie Atkinson who plays Vivian Ward and Rachael Wooding who plays Kit De Luca. The musical is based on the 1990 Gary Marshall film starring Julia Roberts and Richard Gere. Prior to starring in the show, Aimie and Rachael had already experienced great success in other popular West End shows. It has been a great delight for musical lovers to see two sensational actresses share the stage together in this lavish production of Pretty Woman.
In this special interview, Aimie Atkinson and Rachael Wooding both share insights into why the story of Pretty Woman has continued to resonate with audiences throughout the years as well as why it feels so right to have this story adapted into a musical. With both Aimie and Rachael also having great profiles in the industry, they also share their thoughts on celebrity culture and their candid thoughts about the future of stage door fan interactions. We also get to hear them reflect on the current state of the musical theatre industry with the West End filling up with more jukebox musicals and shows adapted from films. It's an intriguing listen and we hope it encourages you to see the show too.
Pretty Woman the Musical is currently running till 4 September 2022 and tickets are on sale now from the Savoy Theatre box office.
