“An immaculately crafted evening of entertainment”

A truly terrifying theatrical experience created by The League of Gentlemen’s Jeremy Dyson, and Andy Nyman, co-creator and director of Derren Brown’s television and stage shows. GHOST STORIES mixes the very best of theatre with the buzz of a thrill-ride, delivering something truly unique.

When Professor Goodman, arch-sceptic out to debunk the paranormal, embarks on an investigation of three apparent hauntings – as recounted by a night-watchman, a teenage boy, and a businessman awaiting his first child – Goodman finds himself at the outer limits of rationality, and fast running out of explanations.

After exhilarating audiences for three years in the West End and across the world with record breaking, sell-out productions and a smash hit film, Ghost Stories is back in London for a strictly limited, 6-week Halloween season run. Hailed by Daily Express as a "truly terrifying theatrical experience", Ghost Stories is a worldwide phenomenon more spine-tingling and exhilaratingly haunting than ever.

THE PRODUCERS

“Funnier than ever. See it and weep, mostly with laughter"

The first major London revival of Mel Brooks’ musical adaptation of THE PRODUCERS transfers to the Garrick Theatre this Autumn following a sold-out run at the Menier Chocolate Factory.

Down-on-his-luck Broadway producer Max Bialystock schemes with timid accountant Leo Bloom to create the biggest flop in theatre history - only to have it backfire spectacularly, and with thunderous applause.

HAMILTON is the story of America's Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant from the West Indies who became George Washington's right-hand man during the Revolutionary War and helped shape the very foundations of the America we know today. The score blends hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap, R&B and Broadway - the story of America then, as told by America now.

Winner of 11 Tony Awards including Best Musical, 7 Olivier Awards, the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the 2016 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.

Did you know…

20,520 words are sung throughout the show, at an average of 144 words per minute, and if Hamilton were sung at the pace of other musicals, it would take four to six hours to perform.

The rap in the show’s 18th track 'Guns and Ships' is considered to be the fastest song in musical theatre, with an average of 6.3 words a second.

The technical equipment suspended over the stage (lights, speakers, automation etc) weighs around 19 tonnes, which is the same as about 6 adult African Bush Elephants.
