When a lost, small bear from Peru arrives in London in search of a new home, a chance encounter with the Brown family leads him to the wonderful world of Windsor Gardens.
But London isn’t all cream teas and friendly faces – and even the happiest families have their cracks beneath the surface. So when Paddington’s life is suddenly in peril, the Browns must decide just how far they’re willing to go — and what they’re willing to risk — to give this special bear a home.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Paddington the Musical
Paddington the Musical review, Savoy Theatre – Gloriously eccentric adaptation transports this furry legend to the stage
10 / 10
If you think all this doesn’t exactly sound like classic family show fare, you’d be entirely right. But somehow this production’s edgier, darker touches only heighten the gorgeously bright palette that this story is working in. Sheppard’s staging abounds with warmth, eccentricity and ambition, from its huge-hearted musical numbers to costume designer Gabriella Slade’s cosy multicoloured knitted get-ups. Like a big game hunter, it aims at huge moving targets – and hits them, again and again.
Paddington The Musical is an irresistibly joyful love letter to London
9 / 10
It is irresistible; delicious and guilt-free. Here the politics of Paddington do not stand naively in the way of entertainment: for all the idealism, a Peruvian bear cannot make the world kinder, any more than the stage can offer perpetual sanctuary. But he will draw people – from near and far – to a city that is not short of loveliness, though the weary cannot see it. Soft power – that’s Paddington’s gift.
