Based on the smash hit 1992 film, THE BODYGUARD follows former Secret Service Agent turned bodyguard Frank Farmer, hired to protect Superstar Rachel Marron from an unknown stalker.

A breathtakingly romantic thriller, THE BODYGUARD features a host of irresistible Whitney Houston classics, including “Queen of the Night,” “So Emotional,” “One Moment in Time,” “Saving All My Love,” “Run to You,” “I Have Nothing,” “I Wanna Dance with Somebody,” and one of the biggest selling songs of all time – “I’ll Always Love You.”

“It is great to bring this play to the stage, it is a story that all audiences regardless of your background can enjoy,” says Anthony Bean.

It stars the incomparable Assata Renay as Superstar Rachel Marron, the talented Jake Wynne-Wilson as Frank, THE BODYGUARD and the Vivacious Eliza Sonnenschein as Rachel’s sister, Nicki.

The finest New Orleans actors conclude with Rachel Marron’s son, Fletcher, played by Carter Williams and Dylan Henderson. The Head of Security, Tony, is played by Al Aubry.
