Millennials is a musical with book, music and lyrics by Elliot Clay. It is described as a "pop song cycle".[1]
Millennials was due to hold its first "work in progress" performances in February 2021 as part of MTFestUK.[2] It was initially scheduled to play to an in-person audience, but was then planned to move online with the rest of the festival due to the coronavirus pandemic.[3] The performances were postponed to May 2021, before embarking on a digital tour, with in person performances taking place at the Turbine Theatre.[4] Casting for the work in progress performances featured Luke Bayer, Allie Daniel, Beth Hinton-Lever, Nathan Lorainey-Dineen, Tim Mahendran, Grace Mouat and Jodie Steele.[5]
An Off-West End run was announced to begin at The Other Palace Studio on 8 July 2022, in a limited run to 7 August, with direction by Hannah Benson.[6] The cast featured Luke Bayer, Hiba Elchikhe, Luke Latchman, Hannah Lowther, Rob Madge, and Georgina Onuorah, with Latchman replacing the previously announced Ivano Turco.[7] [8]
The production extended to 4 September 2022 with a new cast featuring Georgina Castle, Lucca Chadwick-Patel, Jarnéia Richard-Noel, Cleve September, Rhys Taylor and Becca Wickes.[9]
The production was subsequently nominated for ‘Best Off-West End Production’ at the WhatsOnStage awards.
