variety.comK.J. Yossman Gwyneth Paltrow-inspired immersive musical “Gwyneth Goes Skiing” is going global following two sold-out London runs.
Producers Awkward Productions are taking the show to the U.S., with stops in Utah – where Paltrow lost half a day of skiing after a mid-slope collision with optician Terry Sanderson, who went on to sue her – as well as L.A and New York before going on to Canada, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and continental Europe.
They will also be taking another of their viral productions, “Diana: The Untold and Untrue Story,” on tour too, in collaboration with Goudie Events. “Gwyneth Goes Skiing” retells the story of Paltrow’s legal battle with Sanderson with original music by Leland, vocals by Daren Criss and Cat Cohen and a video appearance from Trixie Mattel as Gwyneth Paltrow’s mother Blythe Danner. “Diana: The Untold and Untrue Story” features Diana speaking her (un)truth from heaven as she finally tries to break free from the British monarchy.
Awkward Productions founders Linus Karp and Joseph Martin star in the shows, with Karp playing Paltrow and Princess Diana respectively and Martin playing Sanderson and Charles and Camilla.
