The West End revival of ***[Company](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/2916/company-tickets.aspx)****, *which stars **Rosalie Craig** and **[Patti LuPone](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/news/spotlight-on-patti-lupone)**, has been confirmed to begin its cast recording at the weekend. The recording sessions will also be filmed for an upcoming 2019 documentary on the making of the **Marianne Elliott** production, which offers an innovative new take on the **Stephen Sondheim** classic.
***[Company](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/2916/company-tickets.aspx)**** *is now booking at the **[Gielgud Theatre](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/venue/22/gielgud-theatre.aspx)** until 30 March 2019.
The ***[Company](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/2916/company-tickets.aspx)*** cast recording will feature the voices from the current London revival, a production that has been noted for gender-bending its lead character from the original male Bobby into the female Bobbie. It is speculated that Stephen Sondheim will supervise the recording sessions as part of the new documentary.
The official release date for the new cast album will be announced in due course.
The West End Company cast stars **Rosalie Craig** as Bobbie alongside **Patti LuPone** as Joanne, **Alex Gaumond** as Paul, **Ashley Campbell** as Peter, **Ben Lewis** as Larry, **Daisy Maywood** as Susan, **Gavin Spokes** as Harry, **George Blagden** as PJ, **Jennifer Saayeng** as Jenny, **Jonathan Bailey** as Jamie (originally written as Amy), **Matthew Seadon-Young** as Theo, **Mel Giedroyc** as Sarah, **Richard Fleeshman** as Andy, and **Richard Henders** as David.
