The news comes as the show completes its London run at the Riverside Studios.
It has been announced that Connor Delves will make the U.S. premiere of his award-winning solo play Off-Broadway at MMAC Theatre (248 W 60th St) from the 30th March until the 8th May 2027.
Cadel: Lungs on Legs follows the true story Cadel Evans, the first Australian to win the Tour de France, the world’s most prestigious annual multi-stage bicycle race—a grueling, three-week, 2,200-mile endurance test across France and neighboring countries. Throughout the performance Delves pedals live on the the actual bikes Evans rode to victory in the 2011 Tour de France.
“Connor’s vision for this show is bold and exciting, and I’m thrilled to be involved from the start,” said four-time Olympian Cadel Evans. “His dedication to every detail—the training, and the physical demands of the production—reflects the same passion and commitment I’ve always brought to the bike.”
The show has been created and performed by Connor Delves, written by Delves and Steve McMahon, and directed and dramaturged by Mark Barford. Meanwhile, the creative team also includes: production design by Imagine Black, lighting design by Mitchell Fenton, video design by Lauren Cochrane, composition and sound design by Nate Edmondson, and assistant stage manager Mecca Christy.
