Featuring performers from both the West End and national tours, The Musical Theatre Story takes you on a narrated journey from the birth of the Modern Musical in the early 1920s, through the Golden Age both on film and stage ( Oklahoma! Singing in the Rain, Carousel, West Side Story, etc), through the rise of the rock and dance shows ( Jesus Christ superstar, Chicago, Cabaret, Tommy etc), right up to the present day, where the Epic Musical ( Les Miserable, Miss Saigon, The Phantom of the Opera), Disney and the Juke Box musical ( Jersey Boys, We Will Rock You, etc) have risen to dominate the West End, Broadway and the silver screen.
What ever your musical theatre taste, this show offers something for all, bringing you some of the most loved songs of musical theatre, alongside some of the more obscure, blending together in a two- hour whistle-stop extravaganza of one of the world’s most loved theatrical forms .
