The 1992 blockbuster movie propelled Whitney Houston to superstardom, along with romantic lead Kevin Costner, and is revered as one of the best romantic thrillers in cinema.
The Bodyguard features a multitude of Whitney Houston’s greatest hits, including “I Wanna Dance with Somebody,” “So Emotional,” “How Will I Know,” “I’m Every Woman,” “Saving All My Love,” “Run to You,” “I Have Nothing,” and one of the biggest selling songs of all time – “I Will Always Love You.”
“I am truly ecstatic to be stepping into the iconic role of Rachel Marron. It’s a privilege to bring her story to life, and I am committed to honoring her legacy,” shares Aliyah Khaylyn. “I look forward to embodying her complexity and resilience while weaving in my own personal artistry and interpretation to make the character uniquely my own.”
This breathtakingly romantic thriller and West End smash hit is under the direction of Eric Vaughn Johnson, featuring a cast of professional performers from across the country. It is presented through a special arrangement with www.theatricalrights.com.
The Bodyguard continues OFC’s 2025-2026 Broadway In Brighton Series, with a focus on the importance of family – the family you are born into and your chosen family found along life’s journey.
