Bugsy Malone is set in Prohibition era New York with rival gangsters Fat Sam and Dandy Dan at logger heads. As custard pies fly and Dan’s destructive 'splurge guns' wreak havoc, Bugsy Malone, a penniless ex-boxer and all round nice guy, falls for Blousey Brown, an aspiring singer.

Will Bugsy be able to resist seductive songstress Tallulah, Fat Sam's moll and Bugsy's old flame, and stay out of trouble while helping Fat Sam to defend his business?

Starring a diverse range of talented young performers aged 9 and over, the lead roles will be performed by three different casts in rotation. The 2016 Bugsy Malone cast sees the return of young performers from the 2015 production, alongside new faces including several talented youngsters making their professional debut.

Fat Sam will be played by Vincent Finch, Max Gill, or Maddison Tyson, Dandy will be played by Dan Archie Barnes, Alesandro Bonelli, or Oliver Emery, Fizzy will be played by Elliot Aubrey, Denzel Eboji, or Mekai Manu, Lena / Babyface will be played by  Emily Beacock, Jaydah Bell-Ricketts, or Leah Levman.
