Thrilled to finally share that Allegra is heading into the West End following its UK tour starring the legendary Dame Maureen Lipman, John Middleton, Elizabeth Bower & Bailey Patrick

Casting this project has been such a joy. A brand new comedy by Peter Quilter, directed and choreographed by three-time Olivier Award winner Stephen Mear, and produced by Thomas Hopkins Productions and SAMS Entertainment.

The piece is funny, heartfelt, unapologetically theatrical and full of music, chaos and warmth. Watching this company come together has been incredibly special and I cannot wait for audiences to discover Allegra and the beautiful madness at the heart of it.

Huge thanks to every actor and creative who has been part of the process so far. West End, here we come.

NOW CASTING — WEST END GIRLS ✨

Set against the backdrop of London’s iconic West End, this brand new reality series follows a group of ambitious, high-profile women navigating the pressure, glamour and intensity of life in the theatre industry.

From rehearsals, auditions and opening nights to friendships, rivalries, relationships and the realities of sustaining a career in the spotlight, the series offers unprecedented access into one of the most competitive performance worlds on the planet.

Produced by an award-winning creative team, the pilot begins shooting in London this summer, with major names from the UK theatre industry already attached.

We are looking for bold, charismatic personalities with genuine links to the West End and wider theatre industry. Big lives, real ambition and compelling personal stories are essential.

Think TOWIE, The Real Housewives and Ladies of London — but set in the glamorous, dramatic and fiercely competitive world of the West End.

Applicants must be:
✨ London based
✨ Aged 21–40
✨ Bold, opinionated and genuinely compelling to watch

Open to all genders.

If you think you have the personality, passion and presence for television, we want to hear from you.
