Now Onsale: IDIOTS ASSEMBLE: SPITTING IMAGE THE MUSICAL at the Phoenix Theatre 

The show is coming to the West End direct from a 5-star sell-out run at Birmingham Rep

Show of the Week: Tickets From £30 for WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION

Tickets From £30 for Idiots Assemble Spitting Image The Musical

Witness the greatest cast ever assembled live on stage, as the world-famous Spitting Image puppets tread the boards of London's theatreland for the first time ever in 
Idiots Assemble Spitting Image The Musical.

It's like a big West End show but without the boring bits.

Marvel at a stellar line-up of over 100 puppets of the great and the not so good, live in the (latex) flesh.

See Tom Cruise as you've never seen him before as he's tasked by His Majesty The King to create the U.K.'s very own "Magnificent Seven" of celebrity misfits to save the nation from a cabal of dark forces seeking to destroy it - that's all the usual suspects. And James Corden.

Don't miss this theatrical spectacle as all your favourite villains face off with Tiny Top Gun Tom and his band of rubbery heroes. There's songs. There's dancing. There's absolutely no respect paid to anyone.

All this plus new topical material in the show as and when it arises. Which, let's face it, with the current global situation will be most days...
It's just like a West End musical but funnier and also doesn't have Michael Ball in it.

Master of Ceremonies: Sir Ian McKellen
Starring "The Magnificent Seven": Tom Cruise, Greta Thunbeg, Meghan Markle, Tyson Fury, RuPaul, Angela Rayner and Idris Elba
Also Featuring: Ant & Dec, Donald Trump, Elon Musk, Keir Starmer, Stormzy, Vladimir Putin, The Tory Party Cabinet and many many many many many more

Direct from a 5-star sell-out run at Birmingham Rep, witness this hilarious extravaganza of a musical, simultaneously inspired and appalled by real events.

Written by a tour de force comedy team made up of Al Murray (The Pub Landlord), Matt Forde (The Political Party) and double-Olivier award winner Sean Foley (The Upstart Crow, The Play What I Wrote), who also directs, alongside a creative team spearheaded by the original Spitting Image co-creator, Roger Law, this is sure to be the must-see theatrical spectacular of 2023.

Idiots Assemble Spitting Image The Musical is at The Phoenix Theatre from 24 May - 26 August 2023

Interview: Brodie Donougher A REAL LIFE BILLY ELLIOT STORY!

What do you get when you have a ballet dancer who dreams of making it professionally and showing the world that guys can dance too?  You have a real-life Billy Elliot story, which is happening to someone who played the titular role of Billy on the West End back home in the UK, and is now here in the US studying and training in professional ballet making his dancing dreams a reality! Not only does he dance, but he has done a few acting roles as well and even participated in a professional opera as a dancer. He is taking the role, and making it his real-life story!   At the end of the musical, we see Billy leaving his home and family to head off for training at the Royal Ballet School, so this is like getting to see the story continue beyond the stage!  Broadway World Detroit got a chance to catch up with Brodie Donougher, the last person to play the role of Billy, and see what he’s up to since his days on the West End stage 7 years ago!

Review: BLACK PANTHER IN CONCERT, Royal Albert Hall

Conducted by Anthony Parnther (isn’t that the perfect name to lead this specific venture?), this European premiere features Massamba Diop on the talking drum, an instrument essential to the score. Diop, who performed the original tracks for director Ryan Coogler, is a force of nature. After a beautiful introduction by Parnther (who surprisingly does a cracking impression of James Earl Jones as Mufasa!), Diop gave a taster for what was to come: a vibrant tattoo that goes hand in hand with masterful storytelling, filling the Hall effortlessly.

Review: SMITE: AN IMMERSIVE MURDER MYSTERY at CRYPT

Few words grab the attention like murder. And few genres outside immersive theatre can pull you physically into a specific time and place. So why aren’t there more immersive murder productions like this one?

Review: STUART MICHAEL - THE PSYCHIC MEDIUM, Wonderville

All in all, the evening is like a group session with no guarantees of being called out or receiving answers. Believers will believe, sceptics won’t. Without going into Michael’s “gift”, the two hours are, unfortunately, rather dull. He jumps straight in between tongue-in-cheek jokes and an entertainer’s spirit. A tense silence falls onto the audience and he starts pacing around, trying to “pick up” some “energy”. He is respectful, and kind, almost apologetic for his intrusions into people’s personal lives as he glances into nothingness, pulling information out of thin air.
