THE SHOW
DADDY COOL tells the story of 'Sunny', a young man who lives for his music. Caught up in local rivalry between East and West London crews, he meets and falls in love with 'Rose', daughter of the East End's notorious club owner 'Ma Baker'. Echoing Romeo and Juliet, the lovers' relationship fuels the hostility between the two gangs, leaving their families face to face with past secrets and forcing them to confront their future.

Stephen's television credits include The Bill, Ballykissangel, Dream Team and Murder Squad and he has recently been working on Moonshadow, a musical with Yusuf Islam, using the songs of Cat Stevens. Amani Naphtali's previous plays include the ground-breaking Ragamuffin, as well as Valley of the Blind and Song of Songs. Gurinder Chadha (Bhaji on the Beach, Bend It Like Beckham, Bride & Prejudice) is Creative Associate.
Choreography is by Sean Cheesman (double MTV award-winner and choreographer for Prince, Whitney Houston, Michael & Janet Jackson and Britney Spears). Set and Costume design is by Jon Morrell (His Dark Materials, The Winter's Tale - both NT, Carnival of the Animals at New York City Ballet), with Lighting design by Rob Halliday
(My Fair Lady, UK tour) and Sound by Richard Brooker (Mamma Mia, Mary Poppins, Billy Elliot).
