Once upon a time, there was a 16-year-old boy who had a secret he wanted to tell…So, he approached a documentary filmmaker as you do, and asked if they would help him tell it. The resulting documentary was seen by a theatre director and it inspired him to create a musical. A producing regional theatre backed him. He then bumped into a famous musical theatre star who introduced him to a well-known pop composer who was working with a lyricist and book writer. The theatre put on the production. A major producer saw it and offered them a West End theatre. Everybody’s Talking About Jamie ran in the West End’s Apollo Theatre from October 2017 to September 2021 and is now on a UK tour.
