About the Show

Grace Mouat & Jacob Flower star in this new musical about two sweethearts reconnecting.

Ami meets Ben by a tree on a beautiful hillside. She recognizes him instantly, but Ben doesn’t remember her at all - even though they were once very much in love. What went so wrong in their past, and is there a chance that they might find their happy ending in one another?

Following a live-streamed concert version in 2020, this marks the UK Premiere of a fully staged version of 'Before After'.

Georgie Rankcom ('Anyone Can Whistle') returns to the Southwark Playhouse to direct this new musical, which stars Grace Mouat ('SIX') and Jacob Fowler ('Heathers').
