An hour-long show, written by Kieran Hodgson and Freddie Tapner, comprises seven unique musical compositions based on several conflicts in the life of King Charles III’s scandal-ridden younger brother.
Munya Chawawa will portray Prince Charles, Emma Sidi will play Emily Maitlis, and Jenny Bede will represent Andrew’s ex-wife Sarah Ferguson.
The concert will also include drag queen Baga Chipz as Margaret Thatcher and comedian Harry Enfield as Tony Blair. The piece’s music will be recorded by Tapner’s London Musical Theatre Orchestra, with orchestrations by Simon Nathan. Aisling Duffy choreographed the dance, which was directed by Tom Vinnicombe.
It will include original music by Freddie Tapner, who wrote songs like ‘I Nailed It’, which represent the Prince’s wishful belief that the Newsnight interview went well.
“Will You Be My Ex-Wife”, a love ballad performed by Andrew and Sarah Ferguson; “Obey”, a moving solo piece in which Prince Charles muses on royal scandals past and present; and Andrew’s rousing conclusion, “You’re Always Gonna Need An Andrew”, are among the other tracks.
Hat Trick Productions is producing the programme, which will broadcast this Christmas as part of the channel’s 40th anniversary festivities. Stu Mather, executive producer, stated: “It’s been a genuine pleasure to put together such a fantastically brilliant cast for this all-singing, all-dancing epic, and we can’t wait for you to see it”.
