In Conversation with OLIVER TOMPSETT discussing A Knight's Tale - The Musical

We chatted to Oliver Tompsett who is playing the role of Count Adhemar in A Knight's Tale - The Musical. It is having it's world premiere at the Manchester Opera House from April 11th to May 10th 2025. Karen Ryder asks the questions.
Based on Brian Helgeland’s iconic 2001 film (originally starring Heath Ledger and Paul Bettany), A Knight’s Tale, the brand-new comedy musical, charges into Manchester Opera House for its World Premiere, prior to the West End.
From the Producers of recent stage smash-hits including Disney’s Newsies, Girl From the North Country, 2:22 A Ghost Story and 101 Dalmatians the Musical comes this rip-roaring tale of chivalry, jousting, heroes and villains – A Knight’s Tale has it all.
Expect a truly rockin’ soundtrack, packed with hits!
So saddle up and join Will Thatcher and his band of merry misfits for a Knight like no other.
