Gwyneth Paltrow's ski crash has inspired a musical opening in December in London

The collision at a Utah ski resort that prompted last spring's high-profile civil trial between Gwyneth Paltrow and a 76-year-old retired optometrist will also set the backdrop for an upcoming musical debuting in December at a cabaret theater in London.

The musical "Gwyneth Goes Skiing" is scheduled to open Dec. 13 at London's Pleasance Theatre. It is booked for a limited run at the venue through Dec. 23.

A description of "Gwyneth Goes Skiing," shared online at the theater's website, describes the parodied take on Paltrow's widely publicized legal battle earlier this year as "a brand new show for Christmas 2023." Performers Linus Karp and Joseph Martin will play Paltrow and Terry Sanderson, the retired optometrist who sued her. The dance pop and electronic singer-songwriter Leland, known for "RuPaul's Drag Race," created an original score.
