One of the world’s most popular classic musicals comes to the Gold Coast Little Theatre stage from 9 November until 7 December.

The King and I is a story of love and joy, set to one of the most glorious, unforgettable scores ever written, including Shall We Dance, I Whistle A Happy Tune, Hello Young Lovers, Getting To Know You, I Have Dreamed and Something Wonderful.

Director Stuart Morgan has brought together a sensational local cast, featuring Kellie Wilson (Anna) Malcom McKenzie (King of Siam), Rowena Orcullo Ryan (Lady Thiang), Flynn Anderson (Prince Chululongkorn), Annie Fang (Tuptim) and Jian Peters (Lun Tha). The production also features a fantastic ensemble including the King’s children.

To help understand the culture in which the musical is set, Stuart Morgan engaged Thai Cultural Advisor Tira Prideaux, who is also mother of one of the children in the production. ‘Tira’s insights into Thai culture have been invaluable in guiding the cast, crew and myself,’ says Stuart. ‘She has also been instrumental in finding authentic jewellery and props to bring our production to life.’

Rodgers & Hammerstein’s fifth musical, based on the novel Anna and the King of Siam, was first performed in 1951. After a movie and countless revivals, The King and I remains an audience favourite. The King and Iis a musical celebration not to be missed.
