Based on the Hollywood court case that had the internet gripped in 2023, I Wish You Well: The Gwyneth Paltrow Ski-Trial Musical will open at the Criterion Theatre from 11 September.

The four-hander musical tells the (mostly) true story of the campest celebrity trial in history: Gwyneth vs Terry. Jam-packed with iconic moments, questions about Taylor Swift, and the now famous whisper of 'I Wish You Well' - this is a fast-paced parody London audiences will love!

The cast includes X Factor star Diana Vickers (Dial M for Murder)as Gwyneth, Marc Antolin (Quiz) as Terry, Tori Allen-Martin (Wild About You) as Kristin and Idriss Kargbo (Wicked) as Judge Jude.

The creative team includes director Shiv Rabheru, music and lyrics by Rick Pearson, book with additional lyrics by Roger Dipper and choreography by Arlene Phillips. Musical direction is by Debbi Clarke with associate director and choreographer Tinovimbanashe Sibanda, design by David Shield, lighting design by Alex Lewer, sound design by Dan Samson and casting by Seth Mason CDG. On guitar is Dominic Barker and on drums is Joel Mulley-Goodbarne. Originally commissioned by Ben Lockwood.

I Wish You Well: The Gwyneth Paltrow Ski-Trial Musical will perform at the Criterion Theatre from 11 September - 12 October 2024.

The production follows the smash-hit new musical Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York) which plays its final performance on 31 August.
