The West End production of the musical Titanique – which opened last week to critical acclaim and plays to nightly standing ovations – has extended its booking period to Sunday 8 June 2025.
When the music of Céline Dion makes sweet Canadian love with the eleven-time Oscar®-winning film Titanic, you get Titaníque, New York’s most award-winning splash hit that turns one of the greatest love stories of all time into a hysterical musical fantasia.
What started as one-night showing in Los Angeles, after docking on Broadway, in Canada and Australia, Titaníque has now sailed into London. Based on the idea that global pop icon Céline Dion was actually the hero of the 1997 James Cameron film, Titanic, the absurdity of this dazzlingly camp and frankly ridiculous show only grows from there.
Titanique, the hit off-Broadway musical, has finally docked in London. Currently playing at the Criterion Theatre, the show mixes the iconic story of Titanic with the equally iconic music of Céline Dion, transforming the “Ship of Dreams” into a “hysterical musical fantasia.”
Get a first look at production photos of Titanique, New York’s splash hit comedy now playing at The Criterion Theatre! Learn more about the production and see how to purchase tickets.

BroadwayWorld has just learned that Hex, which was set to be broadcast to cinemas as a National Theatre Live from 17 March, will no longer be filmed due to cancelations because of Covid-19.
The National Theatre has postponed the opening night of its new musical Hex due to COVID-19 among the show’s company. According to National Theatre director Rufus Norris, one of the leads was among those impacted.
The National Theatre has today released a first look at Hex, a new musical based on Sleeping Beauty which is currently open for previews in the Olivier theatre.

Directed by Rufus Norris, with music by Jim Fortune, book by Tanya Ronder and lyrics by Norris himself, the show is a retelling of the popular fairy tale Sleeping Beauty.
