George Brant’s Marie and Rosetta will open in the West End next spring. Directed by Monique Touko, the play stars Beverley Knight reprising her role as gospel and rock pioneer Sister Rosetta Tharpe, alongside Ntombizodwa Ndlovu as Marie Knight, who makes her West End debut. I’m so proud that we get to tell her story and that of her co collaborator Marie Knight played by the incredibly talented Ntombizodwa Ndlovu who makes her debut in the West End. She is a star in the making!”Jonathan Church Theatre Productions and Chichester Festival Theatre, in association with Nica Burns, will present the West End premiere of the Rose Theatre, Chichester Festival Theatre and ETT production, opening at @sohoplace from 28 February 2026.
