Malorie Blackman’s Noughts & Crosses has long been something of a YA classic. Rather than dreaming up a sci-fi future, however, this story presents instead an uncanny alternate present – one where discrimination and racial violence are worse than ever, but it's Black people who are the privileged ones.

Director Jonathan Munby's spectacular production of Wendy & Peter Pan will play the Barbican Theatre this autumn. Learn more about the full upcoming season here!

West End stars, David Hunter and Grace Mouat, will star as Matt Flamhaff and Lucy Wyman respectively in the world premiere production of 13 GOING ON 30 - THE MUSICAL.

The iconic musical GREASE, directed by Nikolai Foster & choreographed by Arlene Phillips, comes to Milton Keynes Theatre in August. Learn how to purchase tickets.

Adopting Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey's original stage version, the production deviates from the famous movie starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. Here we see subversive, sex-driven working-class teenagers among industrial Chicago instead of beachy California. Sandy Olsson is now Sandy Dumbrowski (reflecting the '50s influx of Polish immigrants), the infamous T-birds are the Burger Palace Boys. There is an undertone of gang warfare as the rebellious group often push against authority getting in trouble with the police - it's giving West Side Story.

After worldwide success as a bestselling book and cult movie, Coraline – A Musical will premiere at Leeds Playhouse in spring 2025 ahead of a national tour. 

All new rehearsal photos have been released for GREASE’s UK & Ireland tour in the download link below. Grease begins its tour at the Churchill Theatre in Bromley on 12 March, touring until 16 November.
