OBSERVER: Ordinary Days cast
Clovelly Fox’s artistic director Tyran Parke has announced the cast members and creative team behind its production of Ordinary Days, performing at fortyfive-downstairs from August 20-31.
An intimate chamber musical by writer Adam Gwon, Ordinary Days traces the intersecting lives of four New Yorkers as they search for meaning, connection, and beauty in the everyday.
Taking centre stage in this new production are four of Australia’s most accomplished musical theatre talents:
- Bobby Fox (Jersey Boys, Guys and Dolls) as Jason
- Sarah Morrison (Miss Saigon, Mamma Mia!) as Claire
- Melanie Bird (Sister Act, Next to Normal) as Deb
- Joel Granger (The Book of Mormon, Hairspray) as Warren
“I’m so excited that the success of Clovelly Fox has drawn together artists I’ve admired for decades. I was one of thousands who delighted in Bobby Fox’s breakout performance as Frankie Valli in Jersey Boys.
“Sarah Morrison returns from a glittering West End career, to take on the demanding role of Claire.”
Performance dates: Wednesday August 20 to Sunday August 31 (no performance Tue 26 August).
