What can I expect?

The timeless musical has been brought to the stage by director James Brining, who was behind the spectacular success of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory – The Musical.

For this production, the Quarry stage has been transformed for actors to perform ‘in the round’, meaning that every seat will get a different view of the action. It is suitable for anyone aged eight-years-old and up.

The show has been praised in a review by The Times.

Who is behind the show?

The Leeds Playhouse production comes with a special arrangement by Cameron Mackintosh. The show itself is the brainchild of Lionel Bart, which has been adapted from the Charles Dickens novel.
