Until January 19, 2025

With its infectious songs and romantic escapades, this brand-new musical is bound to be a hit. With the same team that brought us everyone's favorite Henry VIII-based sing-a-long Six', the West End can expect an incredible show this autumn. Writers Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss had this to say about the upcoming musical: "This is ultimately a musical about two friends, their desire for love, and how they deal with loneliness. We hope people come away feeling super uplifted".

The writer behind Cock, Bull and King Charles III, Mike Barlett returns to the West End with this brand-new play, a provocative exploration of polyamory, starring Stephen Mangan (The Split, Episodes), Nicola Walker (The Split, Spooks) as a married couple looking to reignite the spark when they invite a third, Erin Doherty (The Crown) into their lives and their bed. Funny, thought-provoking, and moving, enjoy this strictly adult portrait of a modern marriage.

Mrs Warren's Profession

May 10 - August 16, 2025

Imelda Staunton makes a welcome stage return in 2025, alongside her daughter Bessie Carter (Bridgerton) in George Bernard Shaw's Mrs Warren's Profession. Once banned for three decades under Lord Chamberlin, Shaw intended the play to address prostitution in the era, and to: "draw attention to the truth that prostitution is caused, not by female depravity and male licentiousness, but simply by underpaying, undervaluing and overworking women", as played out when Vivie Warren (Carter) returns home from university to discover her mother Kitty's (Staunton) true profession as a brothel madam.

Garrick Theatre

Charing Cross Road 2A, London WC2H 0HH

  • Year opened: 1889
  • Capacity: 656
  • Concession stands
  • Merchandise booths
  • Disabled access
  • In-house bar
  • Coat check

Although seemingly vast from the Charing Cross Road exterior and originally seating 1,500, The Garrick is now a rather smaller capacity theatre, currently seating 656.

Untouched in over 60 years is the upper gallery, with its original bench seating intact, just in case of excessive demand. With the dress circle situated on street level, the theatre saw extensive excavations during its erection, with work halted by the discovery of a subterranean river running through the site, hidden since Roman times.

Officially opening in 1889, the theatre was financed by W.S Gilbert of 'and Sullivan' fame and is named for famous thesp David Garrick. Mostly hosting comedy and comedy-drama through the years, notable productions have included No Sex Please We're British, the West End Transfer of the National Theatre's revival of an Inspector Calls and Sir Kenneth Branagh's year-long residency in 2016.
