‘Get Up, Stand Up!’ The Bob Marley Musical opens in London
Electrifying new production, Get Up, Stand Up! The Bob Marley Musical, burst into life at the Lyric Theatre from October 2021, celebrating the story of Jamaica’s global superstar. From the hills of rural Jamaica, armed only with his overwhelming talent and righteous beliefs, Bob Marley applied himself with resolute determination to achieve international acclaim for his prophetic musical message – a gospel of love and unity.
With unlimited access to Marley’s platinum-selling catalogue of music, the multi award-winning team of Lee Hall (writer), Clint Dyer (director) and Arinzé Kene (playing Bob Marley) capture the rebellious spirit and story of this universal icon. A euphoric company of performers fuse with the finest reggae musicians to bring this triumphant tale of passion, political unrest and progress from Trenchtown to the West End. Book now and lose yourself to the rhythm of 'Exodus', 'No Woman No Cry', 'Waiting in Vain', 'Three Little Birds', ‘I Shot the Sheriff’, 'Could You Be Loved', 'Redemption Song' and so much more.
The role of Bob Marley will be played by Arinzé Kene on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings as well as Saturday and Sunday matinees. Michael Duke will perform the role on Sunday and Tuesday evenings. This is subject to change at short notice.
