Aliens Love Underpants, Featuring Alex James Ellison & More, Will Invade London's West End

A stage adaptation of Aliens Love Underpants, the children’s book by Claire Freedman and Ben Cort, will return to London’s West End following a U.K. tour. Performances will begin at the Dominion Theatre on August 1 and run through September 5. Adam Bampton-Smith directs and has penned the play, which previously ran at the Leicester Square Theatre last year.

Aliens Love Underpants tells the story of a group of mischievous aliens who come to earth on a mission to steal everybody’s underpants. The small cast is comprised of Abigail Carter-Simpson as Veronica, Mark Collier as Mr. Stevens, Eve Pearson-Wright as Mum and Alex James Ellison as Timmy. Their puppetry skills help bring the colorful cast of aliens to life.

The production features design by Isla Shaw, lighting design by Will Evans and choreography by Emma Clayton.
