COOL RIDER: 10TH ANNIVERSARY CONCERT planned for the West End

A reunion is planned for Spring to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the cult-concert in the West End.

COOL RIDER will head back to the stage at the London Palladium on Sunday 14 April.

The cult musical sequel is a loving, unofficial parody and tribute to everyone's favourite follow-up movie. COOL RIDER played at the Lyric Theatre for two sold out shows, followed by a smash hit run at Duchess Theatre in April 2014, and was immortalised in 2015 by the Original Studio Cast Recording.

The cast of COOL RIDER

The concert will star Aaron Sidwell (Lord of The Rings, Watermill Theatre) and Ashleigh Gray (Wicked) will reunite and reprise their roles of 'Michael Carrington' and 'Stephanie Zinone’.

Joining them will be RuPaul's Drag Race UK star Kitty Scott-Claus (Death Drop) as 'The French One' and Grease 2 star Maxwell Caulfield (Chicago) aka the original Michael Carrington, joins the faculty.

What is COOL RIDER about?

COOL RIDER is much like its musical prequel. The cult film tells the heady and daring love story of two unlikely lovers and their road to romance, from a bowling alley to burger joint, sing-a-long-a-sex education class to a talent show, and long (beautifully lit) romantic motorcycle rides to a slightly incongruous luau ending.
