“Yep it’s a jukebox musical about the life and times of the great Bob Marley, but jukebox musicals can be a class act. The talent on board suggests this one will be. Billy Elliot writer, Lee Hall, has penned the script, National Theatre deputy artistic director Clint Dyer is at the helm, and the show stars Arinze Kene as the Jamaican born Marley who went from poverty to superstardom. Kene himself is supremely talented—he wrote and starred in Misty, a big hit at Trafalgar Studios. I reckon there is a good chance that between them this team will pull this off something special, and that’s before you add in the audience who are likely to bring an extra dimension to a show that aims to make us hear those familiar songs in new ways.”

“This new musical about the life and work of Bob Marley will feature Arinzé Kene in the titular role. Kene was last on the West End in the fantastic Misty.”
