Meet Alex, an out-of-work actor who finds himself working beneath Barbra Streisand’s Malibu home in her legendary basement shopping mall. A big hit in New York and London, Buyer & Cellar is an outrageous comedy about the price of fame, the cost of things, and the oddest of odd jobs.
Ten years after the critically acclaimed Off-Broadway production closed, this hilarious one-person show returns to London with the magnificent Rob Madge starring as Alex. Rob is best known for writing and starring in their hit show My Son’s a Queer (But What Can You Do?), which won the 2022 WhatsOnStage Award for Best Off-West End show and, following two West End runs, was nominated for a 2023 Laurence Olivier Award.
Written by Jonathan Tolins, known for his work on Schmigadoon! and The Good Fight and as showrunner of the new hit series Elsbeth, this production will be directed by Kirk Jameson (Song From Far Away, Madagascar The Musical) with scenographer Ingrid Hu (Song From Far Away, Chotto Xenos), lighting design by Jack Weir (To Wong Foo The Musical, Death Drop), composition & sound design by Emily Rose Simons (Miss Julie, Pickle), wig design by Craig Forrest-Thomas (Hairspray, The Magic Flute) and stage management by Rosie Morgan (The Artist, My Son's a Queer (But What Can You Do?)).
