Jonathan Butterell (director), Dan Gillespie Sells (music) and Tom MacRae (book and lyrics) said: “Jamie’s courage in unveiling himself in all his glorious, fabulous joy has been applauded by millions of people in dozens of countries, and next year, to celebrate the show’s 10th birthday, he will be returning home to stages all around the UK.
“We were inspired by the true story of Jamie and Margaret Campbell, and we are thrilled that their story is still inspiring the world with its sass-filled magic.
“We could not be more grateful for the Jamie family we share across the globe, and are so excited to bring a new Jamie, Margaret, Pritti, Hugo, Ray, Miss Hedge and Dean, plus all the wonderful drag queens and year 11s, back together and out into UK theatres next year. In the place where we belong.”
About the show
Jamie New is 16-years-old and lives on a council estate in Sheffield. Jamie doesn’t quite fit in. Jamie is terrified about the future. Jamie is going to be a sensation.
Supported by his brilliant loving mum and surrounded by his friends, Jamie overcomes prejudice, beats the bullies and steps out of the darkness, into the spotlight.
Everybody’s Talking About Jamie features an original score including And You Don’t Even Know It, It Means Beautiful and the title song, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie.
The production originally opened at the Sheffield Crucible in 2017, before transferring to the Apollo Theatre in the West End where it ran until September 2021. The production has played across the world, including the USA, Korea, Japan and Italy and adapted into a feature film.
