Sammy Moore, Cam Tweed, Ryan Upton, Alice O’Brien, Courtney Cyrus and Ena Yamaguchi have been announced as the cast of Behind we have G Stringwhich runs at the King’s Head Theatre from 6 May to 7 June 2026.
Directed and choreographed by Alfred Taylor‑Gaunt, the production returns following a previous run at Sadler’s Wells. Described as very fun, quite silly and rather naughty, the show transforms classical music favourites into a homoerotic whirlwind of physical comedy.
The piece blends dance and slapstick in a series of visual sketches created by Some Smith and Moore. The 75‑minute production promises an evening that is mischievous, unpredictable and a little cheeky.
 
 
 
 
Moore reprises his performance from the earlier staging, with screen roles including Evermoor Chronicles, Father Brown and Haunted. Tweed joins the company as a five‑time Tap World Champion, while Upton arrives from international work with Mystic Ballet and credits including The Snowman and Disney’s Tarzan the Musical.

Cyrus brings experience from Beauty and the Beast and Pinocchio: A New Musicalas well as a growing online following. Yamaguchi’s credits include The King and I at the London Palladium and Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club.
