VICTOR/VICTORIA
UK PREMIERE OF THE BROADWAY SMASH HIT MUSICAL
'Once a year, around this time, a small miracle takes place... Phil Willmott turns out a musical that regularly becomes the hottest treat in town.' The Guardian
Celebrate the New Year with an outrageous trip back to 1930s 'gay Paree' when the Bridewell is transformed into the city's hottest nightspot for an evening of high camp and glamour. The cult movie musical and Broadway hit show that Blake Edwards wrote for Julie Andrews is presented on the London stage for the very first time.
When penniless soprano Victoria Grant auditions for Paris's most decadent night club she soon realises it'll take more than a pure singing voice to become the toast of the town. Fortunately the flamboyant Toddy is at hand with an audacious plan to disguise her as a male drag queen! Can they fool Paris and pull off the coup?
With an infectious score include Le Jazz Hot, Crazy World, and Paris Makes me Horny!, this multi-award winning show is staged by the team behind some of the most celebrated Off West End musicals including BAC's Sound of Music, Sweet Charity, The King and I, & Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.
