What is I’m Every Woman: The Chaka Khan Musical about?

I’m Every Woman: The Chaka Khan Musical will tell the powerful real-life story of Chaka Khan, charting her rise to fame and what life “behind the diva” is really like.

“The fame, the fire, the fight – this is her story,” reads the musical’s synopsis. “I’m Every Woman: The Musical brings to life the untold story of Chaka Khan, one of the most influential voices of our time.

“Unapologetically bold and deeply human, the production explores her unwavering passion for civil rights, her defiance in the face of a toxic music industry, the harrowing road through addiction, and the unrelenting pressure of being a working mother.

“At its core, it’s a story of resilience, purpose, and power — a celebration of the woman behind the legend,” the synopsis adds.

The production is written by Nia T. Hill, directed by Racky Plews, choreographed by Jade Hackett, produced by Adrian Grant (in association with Chaka herself), and cast by Debbie O’Brien (with cast still to be announced).

What has Chaka Khan said about her new musical, I’m Every Woman?

In a statement released on Friday, May 9 when the show’s London world premiere was announced, Chaka shared that it is the “greatest honour to have [her] journey and work celebrated” with this musical.

“Many of you know that my life has always influenced my music – but you may not know the full story. I've lived a rich, beautiful, and sometimes difficult life, and now those experiences will come alive on stage in I’m Every Woman: The Musical,” she said.
