Trevor Nunn directs the production, which features music and lyrics by Margaret Martin. Darius Danesh and Jill Paice star as Rhett Butler and Scarlet O'Hara.

"Set in 1860's Atlanta, Georgia, Gone with the Wind follows the story of the seventeen-year-old Scarlett O'Hara, the eldest of three daughters living a life of luxury on their father's plantation," show notes explain. "But then President Lincoln demands the end of slavery in the South and the Civil War begins. Scarlett's incredible journey through both the war and the peace is mirrored in her turbulent relationship with Rhett Butler, whose actions always defy prediction."

Here is a first look at the West End production:
