Ahead of its Broadway debut this November and its screening on Netflix on October 1, the first trailer for the musical stage version of the life of Princess Diana has been released.
Diana: The Musical stars Jeanna de Waal as the late British royal, who died in 1997, and the cast also includes Roe Hartrampf as Prince Charles, Judy Kaye as Queen Elizabeth, and Erin Davie as Camilla Parker Bowles.
Diana: The Musical is being released just before Spencer, the upcoming Princess Diana biopic starring Kristen Stewart, and is directed by Tony Award-winner Christopher Ashley (Come From Away, Memphis), and was filmed in 2020 at the Longacre Theatre without an audience.
The musical's book and lyrics are by Joe DiPietro (Memphis) and music and lyrics is by David Bryan of Bon Jovi.
Key moments from Diana's life will be set to musical numbers in the show, with reports suggesting that her final years as a member of British Royal Family are expected to take up most of the drama.
In the new trailer, set to the song If, which is one of the final songs of the show, she is seen meeting Prince Charles for the first time, wearing her wedding dress, the arrival of Prince William, and the attention she received from the British media.
