Two small town kids from the middle of nowhere became the biggest folk heroes in all America. They craved adventure and each other. Their names were Bonnie and Clyde.
Winner of Best New Musical at the WhatsOnStage Awards 2023, the West End cult sensation is set to hold up Sunderland following two hell raising seasons in London’s West End.
Starring Catherine Tyldesley (Coronation Street, Strictly Come Dancing) as Blanche, Alex James Hatton (Newsies, Heathers) and Katie Tonkinson (Bat Out of Hell) as the notorious lovers, joined by Sam Ferriday (The Cher Show) as Buck, with Jaz Ellington (The Voice) as The Preacher. Nate Landskroner (Waitress, Heathers) will play the role of Clyde at midweek matinee performances, with Lauren Jones playing the role of Bonnie at Saturday matinees.
Fearless, shameless, and alluring, this award-winning production has garnered a mass following, much like the infamous pair themselves, and now they are set to take your city by storm. Discover the electrifying story of love, adventure and crime that captured the attention of an entire nation.
Featuring music by Tony® nominee Frank Wildhorn (Jekyll & Hyde), lyrics by Tony® and Oscar® winner Don Black (Sunset Boulevard), a book by Emmy® Award nominee Ivan Menchell, directed and choreographed by Nick Winston.

Vesta Tilley laid the foundation stone of what is now the Sunderland Empire on 29 September 1906 and took to the stage on 1 July 1907 to officially declare the theatre open. Masterminded by two of the contemporary heads of British theatre, Edward Moss and Oswald Stoll, the Sunderland Empire Theatre has undergone many changes since it opened but remains the North East’s premier entertainment venue.
