About the show

Following eight sold out workshop performances at The Other Palace in 2024, new musical Redcliffe, written and performed by Jordan Luke Gage (‘Bonnie & Clyde’, ‘Heathers’, ‘&Juliet’) will run for a limited time, fully staged, at Southwark Playhouse Borough from May 2026. Set against the backdrop of 18th Century England, the new musical is based on the haunting true story of William Critchard and Richard Arnold in Redcliffe, Bristol and is an epic tale of forbidden love during the persecution people faced for hundreds of years. William, a man from humble beginnings, is swept up in a hurricane of passion and danger when he meets Richard, a sailor visiting the town. This meeting forces both men to question everything they knew about the world and themselves.
