Full casting has been announced for the world premiere of Tim Rice and Stuart Brayson’s new stage musical From Here to Eternity. The musical opens at the Shaftesbury Theatre on Wednesday 23rd October 2013 (previews from 30th September).

Last month a crowd of over 10,000 people in Trafalgar Square were given an exclusive chance to hear a new song from the musical, ‘Fight the Fight’, as Robert Lonsdale performed at West End Live. 

Adapted from one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century, this gripping tale of illicit love and army life unites the writing talents of Tim Rice (lyrics), Stuart Brayson (music) and Bill Oakes (book). It marks Tim's first new stage musical for over ten years and Stuart's West End début.
