High Society The Musical

Barbican Centre

‘Sexy & Sassy with great songs, hot dancing and smart gags.’ (Daily Mail) this five star new production is ‘a supremely lovely way to spend a Summer evening’ (The Independent). 

Kiss Me, Kate

Three renowned former performers from Andrew Lloyd-Webber’s iconic musical ‘The Phantom Of the Opera’ are preparing to host and showcase their exceptional talents alongside The Hallé Orchestra at The Bridgewater Hall. This enchanting musical extravaganza will feature the finest tunes from the world of musical theatre. On our stage team, James Hume, Rohan Tickell, and Richard Woodford, will treat the audience to a haunting evening of musical theatre that transcends the mystique of the infamous white mask. The event will take us on a journey through some of the most beloved musicals in the world, including Les Misérables, Moulin Rouge, The Sound of Music, Sunset Boulevard, and, of course, The Phantom of the Opera.

Helen George (Call the Midwife, The King and I) leads the cast as the glamorous Tracy Lord, joined by stage and screen favourites Freddie Fox (Slow Horses) and Julian Ovenden (South Pacific). The show also stars Nigel Lindsay (Kiss Me, Kate) and Malcolm Sinclair (Pie in the Sky).
