Prepare to be swept off your feet by the world premiere of Drew Gasparini’s electrifying new musical, We Aren’t Kids Anymore, debuting on Monday 28th April 2025. This is not just another show; it’s a vibrant celebration of life’s journey, brought to life by the phenomenal talents of Olivier Award-winner Sam Tutty and the illustrious Aimie Atkinson at the iconic Savoy Theatre this Spring. As we at Theatre Village eagerly await further casting announcements, anticipation builds for what promises to be an unforgettable theatrical experience.
We Aren’t Kids Anymore is a breathtaking exploration into the timeless struggle of growing up—a dynamic narrative that resonates with anyone who has ever dared to dream. The second act features Gasparini himself in concert, showcasing his most beloved works alongside special guests yet to be revealed. Originally an autobiographical piece, this musical has blossomed into a universal tale that captures life’s kaleidoscope of emotions—from soaring joys and deep regrets to fleeting moments of triumph.
Told through five unique perspectives spanning age and gender, this production delves into dreams pursued and paths less traveled. It reminds us all that adulthood is but a series of guesses made in darkness—a poignant reminder that no matter our age or background, we are all navigating life’s unpredictable journey.
Following its triumphant workshop debut in June 2024 from Gasparini’s viral concept album, We Aren’t Kids Anymore challenges traditional musical theatre norms with its eclectic mix of pop, rock, and country styles. Known for his work on Smash and Broadway hits like The Karate Kid and Skittles Commercial: The Broadway Musical, Gasparini pushes boundaries with this innovative masterpiece celebrating self-discovery.
Sam Tutty shares his enthusiasm: “I am so excited about working on this project—Drew’s work is incredible! I can’t wait to see what magic we create together.” Aimie Atkinson echoes these sentiments: “I’m thrilled to be part of such an exciting new musical—I can’t wait for audiences to experience it!”
