Supersonic Man is a joyous and moving new musical set within the LGBTQI+ community of Brighton.

The cast includes Dylan Aiello (Kissing a Fool), James Lowrie (Bat Out Of Hell The Musical), Jude St James (The Sound of Music), Dominic Sullivan (Young Sherlock) and Mali Wen Davies (making her professional debut).

The production draws inspiration from the remarkable true story of Peter Scott-Morgan, whose journey was featured in the acclaimed 2020 Channel 4 documentary Peter: The Human Cyborg. The story follows Adam, a vibrant and carefree influencer living life to the fullest. However, his world is turned upside down when he's diagnosed with a terminal condition, threatening everything he holds dear, including his relationship with Darryl, the love of his life. Determined to find a new path, the couple embarks on a groundbreaking journey, exploring revolutionary ways for Adam to live — even if it means transforming into a human cyborg.

The creative team for Supersonic Man includes Aaron Clingham as Musical Director, Musical Arrangements by Steven Edis, Choreography by Philip Joel, Designer David Shields, Lighting Richard Lambert,
Production Assistant Angie Lawrence, Graphic Design by Steve Caplin, Production Photography by Peter Davies and Produced by LAMBCO Productions.

Supersonic Man will play at the Southwark Playhouse Borough from 9 April - 3 May 2025.
