West End Wilma Award winning actress and singer Marisha Wallace’s brand-new album, Live in London, recorded at the Adelphi Theatre to be released on 15 August 2025.
Marisha says: “Live in London was recorded at the historic Adelphi Theatre—a place that holds my heart, where I once took to the stage night after night in Waitress, pouring my soul into every song. This album is a labour of love, a celebration of the music that brought me here, and a thank-you to every person who’s been part of this extraordinary journey.
“Each song on this album tells a chapter of that story. The anthems you’ve loved me for, the ballads that held my heart and the showstoppers that lit the path forward. This is more than a concert—it’s a reminder that you don’t have to start with much to become something extraordinary.”
In an unforgettable moment during the show, Marisha was joined by her ex-co-stars of the West End production of Waitress. Lucie Jones and Laura Baldwin came on stage to perform stunning versions of Opening Up and A Soft Place to Land with Marisha, to rapturous applause.
Marisha is releasing several singles in the run up to the album release, the first being her extraordinary version of Maybe This Time, from Cabaret to be released on 20 June.
To celebrate the single release, Marisha is delighted to be performing at this year’s spectacular celebration of musicals, West End Live, in London’s Trafalgar Square on Saturday 21 June. Not only will the audience be able to hear Marisha performing live at 3pm, but she will also be signing exclusive copies of the new Live in London album ahead of its release in August.

About Marisha Wallace
Double Olivier-Nominated actress, Marisha Wallace hails from North Carolina, USA where her love of singing began in her local church with her family. She made her Broadway debut in Aladdin directed by Casey Nicholaw and, following that, went into the Original Broadway Cast of Something Rotten. A last-minute request to go to London to take over the role of Effie White in Dreamgirls in the West End, a role she was only supposed to do for three weeks, turned into eight years in the role!
Marisha went onto star in the Original West End Cast of Waitress playing Becky and the revival of Hairspray at the Coliseum playing Motormouth Maybelle. Her formidable performances led to Director Daniel Fish asking her to play Ado Annie in his ground-breaking production of Oklahoma! at the Young Vic Theatre, for which she was nominated for the WhatsOnStage, Evening Standard and Olivier Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Musical. It was quickly followed by another smash-hit revival, Guys and Dolls at the Bridge Theatre directed by Sir Nicholas Hytner, for which she was nominated for the WhatsOnStage, Evening Standard and Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical.
Marisha most recently performed as ‘Sally Bowles’ in Rebecca Frecknall’s production of Cabaret in the West End.
