Club NVRLND at The Vaults: Diana Vickers leads the full cast for Waterloo run

The full cast has been confirmed for Club NVRLND, the immersive nightclub musical that turns J.M. Barrie's boy who never grew up into the host of an underground club night. Diana Vickers plays Wendy Darling, with George Renshaw as Peter Pan, Le Fil as Tiger Lily, Ceili O'Connor as Tink, Peter Caulfield as The Crocodile and Matthew Gent as Hook.

The show transfers to The Vaults in Waterloo after a sold out run at the 2025 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and plays from 14 November 2026 to 31 January 2027.

Who joins the cast in London?

Renshaw, O'Connor and Caulfield were the final principals to be named, joining the previously announced Vickers and Le Fil. Vickers made her West End debut in The Rise and Fall of Little Voice in 2009, winning the London Newcomer of the Year Award, and her stage credits since include The Rocky Horror Show, Steel Magnolias and I Wish You Well. Le Fil, known to television audiences from RuPaul's Drag Race UK, returns to Tiger Lily after creating the role in Edinburgh.

Gent also comes back to the role he originated at the Fringe. His London credits include Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club, Sweeney Todd, The Phantom of the Opera and Les Misérables. Renshaw's work includes The Oresteia at the Bridge Theatre, Dorian at Southwark Playhouse and Heathers at The Other Palace, while O'Connor has appeared in Mary Poppins at the Prince Edward Theatre and Sunset Boulevard at the Royal Albert Hall. Caulfield's credits include Jesus Christ Superstar at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre.

Becky Bassett plays Nana and Damian Buhagiar plays Smee, with both also in the ensemble. They are joined in the ensemble by Joshua De La-Garde, Max James Hodge, Elinor Morris and Appolilly Szwarc, while Ashley-Jordon Packer and Natalie Yin are the on-stage swings.

What is the story?

When runaway bride Wendy Darling stumbles back into Peter's world, she is forced to question everything she thought she wanted, and is offered the chance to rewrite her story. Audiences step inside NVRLND to drink and dance alongside the cast as the story plays out around them.

The soundtrack draws on pop anthems from the 2000s and beyond, by artists including Britney Spears, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Kylie Minogue, Coldplay, Outkast, Avril Lavigne, Christina Aguilera, Katy Perry and Panic! At The Disco. The Times has said of the show: "This pop take on Peter Pan will grow into a phenomenon. I haven't heard such screaming in a theatre since Six."

Who are the creative team?

The musical is conceived and directed by Steven Kunis with a book by Jack Holden. Holden wrote and performed Cruise, which premiered at the Duchess Theatre in 2021, and won the Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Play for KENREX.

Ashley Nottingham choreographs, with executive music production and arrangements by Hugo Dunn-Vereker, set and costume design by Suzu Sakai, lighting by Robbie Butler and sound by Rob Bettle and Sam Clarkson for Sound Quiet Time. Casting is by Lucy Casson, music supervision is by Colm O'Regan and Aida Rocci is creative producer and dramaturg.

The production is presented by arrangement with Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity and Concord Theatricals Ltd.
