Experience the thrill of the West End’s most haunting love story, as Phantom Of The Opera enters its 40th year, marking four extraordinary decades at His Majesty’s Theatre.

Cameron Mackintosh’s production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom Of The Opera is widely considered one of the world’s most beautiful and spectacular musicals. Since 1986, Phantom Of The Opera has become a global phenomenon, with productions playing to 160 million people in 219 cities, 54 territories and in 23 languages. Lloyd Webber’s celebrated romantic and soaring score includes The Music of the Night, All I Ask of You, Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again, Masquerade and the iconic title song.

Phantom Of The Opera tells the haunting story of Christine Daaé, a young soprano whose extraordinary voice enchants a mysterious masked figure known as The Phantom. A brilliant yet tormented musical genius, The Phantom dwells in the depths of the Paris Opera House, casting fear over all who inhabit it.

Drawn to Christine’s sensational talent, The Phantom becomes her mentor, believing she alone can truly bring his music to life, and as he guides her from the shadows, he falls deeply and dangerously in love.

When Christine is reunited with her childhood sweetheart, Raoul, now the young patron of the Opera House, she has to wrestle with the unpredictable nature of a powerful love triangle. The Phantom’s obsession with his new star sets off a dramatic turn of events where devotion, jealousy and passions collide.

Following his sell-out performance of Venus and Adonis, Mark Rylance returns to the Marylebone Theatre to star in Tartuffe (Remixed), a new version of Molière’s classic comedy, written and directed by Darren Raymond. Relocated to a Nigerian-jamaican household in modern England, Tartuffe (Remixed) is a deliciously biting comedy in rhyming couplets, which brings both new humour and modern pathos to the original text.

The outspoken Afolabi–Williams family gathers at Oga Afolabi's mansion as preparations begin for the wedding of his daughter. With relatives arriving from far and wide, family traditions are in full swing, emotions are running high, and opinions are never in short supply. But when Tartuffe, a charismatic man of God who has won Oga's unwavering trust, takes up residence in the family home, old wounds reopen, loyalties are tested, and faith itself becomes a battleground. As the wedding day draws ever closer, the family must expose the truth before everything they hold dear is torn apart.

Bold, hilarious and heartfelt, Tartuffe (Remixed) reimagines Molière's timeless comedy through the lens of a contemporary Nigerian–Jamaican family. Blending razor-sharp comedy, spoken word, music and beautifully crafted rhyming verse, this vibrant new adaptation is a joyful celebration of faith, family, forgiveness and the courage to speak truth to powerWhat is the price of the choices we make?

Winner of more than 100 global awards, Wicked is already the 9th longest–running production in West End history.

When Dorothy famously triumphed over the Wicked Witch of the West, we only ever heard one side of the story. Gregory Maguire‘s acclaimed 1995 novel, ‘Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West’, re-imagines the Land of Oz, creating a parallel universe to the familiar story written by L. Frank Baum and first published as ‘The Wonderful Wizard of Oz’ in 1900.

Wicked tells the incredible story of an unlikely but profound friendship between two young women: the blonde and very popular Glinda, and a misunderstood green girl named Elphaba.

Following an encounter with The Wonderful Wizard, their friendship reaches a crossroads and their lives take very different paths. Glinda’s unflinching desire for popularity sees her seduced by power, while Elphaba’s determination to remain true to herself, and to those around her, will have unexpected and shocking consequences on her future.

Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfil their destinies as Glinda the Good and The Wicked Witch of the West.

This musical phenomenon is the winner of over 100 major international awards, including three Tony Awards, two Olivier Awards, eleven WhatsOnStage Awards, and a Grammy.
