New trailers have been released for the West End productions of The Cripple of Inishmaan starring Daniel Radcliff and Cameron Mackintosh's new production of Miss Saigon. Take a look at the videos below!
Michael Grandage's production of The Cripple of Inishmaan stars Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe in the title role. The productions marks the first major London revival since its premiere at the National Theatre in 1996.
Set on the remote island of Inishmaan off the west coast of Ireland, word arrives that a Hollywood film is being made on the neighboring island of Inishmore. The one person who wants to be in the film more than anybody is young Cripple Billy, if only to break away from the bitter tedium of his daily life. Martin McDonagh’s comic masterpiece examines an ordinary coming of age in extraordinary circumstances and confirms his position as one of the most original Irish voices to emerge in the second half of the twentieth century.

Last month it was finally confirmed that Miss Saigon will return to the West End in May 2014. Set in 1975 during the final days of the American occupation of Saigon, Miss Saigon is an epic love story about the relationship between an American GI and a young Vietnamese woman. Orphaned by war, 17-year-old Kim is forced to work as a bar girl in a sleazy Saigon night club owned by a notorious wheeler-dealer known as 'The Engineer'. John, an American GI, buys his friend Chris the services of Kim for the night. That night will change their lives forever.
Since its London premiere in 1989, Cameron Mackintosh's production of Alain Boulil and Claude-Michel Schönberg's epic musical Miss Saigon has become one of the most successful musicals in history and the greatest success ever to play the Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Tickets go on sale 9th September 2013.
