Clueless The Musical will be led by Emma Flynn as Cher Horowitz, who will make her West End debut. She previously played the role in the off-West End premiere of the show in Bromley earlier this year. She will be joined by Keelan McAuley (Grease, Heathers The Musical) as Josh. Further casting is yet to be announced.

Emma Flynn said: “I’m beyond excited to step into Cher’s iconic shoes and bring her to life on the West End stage. Alicia Silverstone created such a beloved character in the original Clueless film, and it’s an incredible honor to continue that legacy. I can’t wait for audiences to rediscover Cher’s wit and heart in a whole new way, and I’m thrilled to be part of such a timeless story.”

Keelan McAuley said: “I’m so excited to be embodying Paul Rudd’s character from the original movie, on the stage! I especially can’t wait for audiences to hear the music in Clueless. KT Tunstall has created a great new score inspired by the music styles of the ‘90s. Combined with Glenn Slater’s amazing lyrics, they’ve really brought a whole new energy to the story.”

Clueless is based on Jane Austen’s Emma and follows popular high school student Cher, who spends much of her time playing matchmaker. The 1995 film starred Alicia Silverstone as Cher Horowitz.

The film was adapted into a musical once before in 2018. The off-Broadway production was a jukebox musical featuring musical hits of the 80s and the 90s. However, this new production will feature a completely original score.

Clueless A New Musical will play at the Trafalgar Theatre from 15 February 2025 and is currently booking until 14 June 2025. Keep an eye out for further announcements!
