London’s smash West End production The Bodyguard – The Musical makes its way to the U.S. with the forthcoming release of its hit-filled cast album, coinciding with a new country-wide tour. The Bodyguard – The Musical (World Premiere Cast Recording) will be released on November 18, 2016 from First Night Records/R.E.D., and features the outstanding vocals of Alexandra Burke, a previous star of the London cast production and winner of the fifth season of the British television series “The X-Factor.”

Based on Lawrence Kasdan’s 1992 Oscar-nominated Warner Bros. film and adapted by Academy Award-winner Alexander Dinelaris for the stage, The Bodyguard – The Musical (World Premiere Cast Recording), a breathtaking romantic thriller, features classics from the original film, including – of course – the legendary “I Will Always Love You,” plus many other feel-good hits.

After its world premiere on December 5, 2012 at London’s Adelphi Theatre, The Bodyguard – The Musical was nominated for four Laurence Olivier Awards including Best New Musical and Best Set Design and won Best New Musical at the Whatsonstage Awards. The UK production of the musical recently completed a sell-out UK and Ireland tour and made its triumphant return to London’s West End at the Dominion Theatre on July 15, 2016.

The 2016 – 2017 U.S. National Tour, starring Grammy-nominated singer Deborah Cox as Rachel Marron, will commence on November 25, 2016 in Millburn, NJ prior to the official start at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis, MN on January 10, 2017.
