There’s a new show in town, but born a few years ago… pretty much like the main character in this astonishing musical.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is currently playing at the Southwark Playhouse: Elephant (not to be confused with the Southwark Playhouse Borough) . First appearing in London in 2019 at its sister theatre, Jethro Compton and Darren Clark’s musical is a fresh take on an old tale by F Scott Fitzgerald.
From the get go, the music and acting, not to mention direction, design, stage management and sound mixing are just off-the-charts good.
I just had to sit down and chat with the two central characters…I cannot call them leads, as this is truly and ensemble piece. Jamie Parker and Molly Osborne who play the titular character and the love of his life, Elowen Keene are an absolute delight on stage and  in person.
