Yellow Ticket Productions is the brainchild of Bridgnorth residents and married couples Alfonso Casado Trigo and Jessie Hart, and Chris and Lucy Key. Alfonso and Jessie moved to Bridgnorth in September 2024, whilst Chris and Lucy have lived in the town for over 20 years. Between them they have experience as either actors or creatives on productions in The West End, on Broadway and Worldwide! After performing in Les Misérables as an actor, Chris became the Associate Director of the show and his first International production took him to Madrid. Here he was part of the team that appointed the young and up and coming Musical Director Alfonso Casado Trigo as the Conductor for the Spanish Production. They have remained friends ever since and Alfonso’s musical talent saw him cross the channel and begin to work in the West End and around the world. On Les Misérables alone, Chris and Alfonso have worked on productions in America, Japan, Australia, Brazil, Holland, Korea, Mexico and Spain to name but a few! They have also worked on the London production together, with Alfonso even conducting Chris perform the role of Jean Valjean! Since then, Chris has gone on to work on productions of Miss Saigon, School of Rock,The Wizard of Oz and Joseph and the Amazing Technicoloured Dreamcoat, whilst Alfonso has worked on Miss Saigon, Phantom of the opera, 101 Dalmations, Sondheim’s Old Friends in the West End and on Broadway, as well as conducting a multitude of concerts and film soundtracks! Lucy Key worked as an actress in Musical Theatre and Television for many years, out of the roles she has played, Maria in West Side Story was probably her proudest moment as it was a dream role for her. She played the role both in the West End and on the UK Tour. During a brief sabbatical from performing, Chris and Lucy ran a BTEC course called ‘The Young Apprenticeship Scheme’ for budding actors in the West Midlands area. A young girl from Wall Heath called Jessie Robinson joined the course and Lucy and Chris watched her shine and grow into a wonderful young actress. Jessie went on to train at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, chose the stage name Jessie Hart, and has gone on to play the lead role of Baby in Dirty Dancing, cover Eponine in Les Misérables in the West End, the UK tour and the Staged Concert, as well as TV appearances on Doctors and Arthur and George. After a chance meeting at Lucy’s sisters wedding, Alfonso and Jessie became a couple and now the four amigos are in Bridgnorth and are keen to bring a slice of the West End to Shropshire!
