Cyrano de Bergerac

Vaneeka accepting the role of the Beatboxer in Jamie Lloyd’s phenomenal production of Cyrano de Bergerac, starring James McAvoy was the first West End job JBR Creative Management booked. That it was also Vaneeka’s first ever acting job as well as her West End debut made it a particularly special event – I even have the press night tickets framed on my wall!

That Vaneeka gets to return to Cyrano in 2022 is such an extraordinary gift and one we are both so grateful for. This incredible production (with casting by Stuart Burt & Richard Johnson) was one of my theatrical highlights of the past few years. Thousands of people have seen the NT Live version and now thousands more will get to see it live at its new London base at the Harold Pinter Theatre before it moves to McAvoy’s home town of Glasgow and then to New York City. Yep, Vaneeka’s off to NYC, baby!

For a first job, I’d say this one is always going to have a special place in both mine, and Vaneeka’s hearts.

12,000 tickets will priced at £15 across all UK productions, with 75% specifically for under 30s, key workers and those receiving government benefits.
