the route to happiness

A three-person musical charting the individual and interweaving experiences of three present-day Londoners in pursuit of their respective dreams: finding love, making money, and becoming famous. A show with humour and heart, it promises to amuse you, move you, and possibly even make you question your own desires and goals.

The musical premiered at the Landor Theatre, London in a production featuring Cassidy Janson, Niall Sheehy and Shona White, and directed by Rob McWhir, and received its German premiere at Kukuun in Hamburg in a production featuring Sabine Meyer, Rob Pitcher and Janina Maria Wilhelm, and directed by Michael Cagna.

The Route To Happiness has also been released as a complete recording, featuring West End sensations Kerry Ellis, Ben Forster and Louise Dearman, available to download from iTunes, Amazon and all major online music platforms and to purchase as a deluxe 2-disc set from Amazon and Dress Circle.
