Railway Children arrives at London's King's Cross Station from December.

locomotive that steams into the theatre to delight all ages. A truly unique
theatrical experience, The Railway Children returns to London after
winning the Olivier Award for Best Entertainment and sellout seasons in
its previous home at Waterloo. If you haven’t been recently, come and

Guys and Dolls
Nathan Detroit is desperate: he needs money for an illegal dice game, and
he needs it fast. Not to mention a 14 year engagement with night-club
singer Miss Adelaide whose patience is finally running out. Enter
notorious gambler Sky Masterson, a guy who can never turn down a bet,
and straight-laced missionary Sarah Brown, a doll with a heart of ice. The
wager: Sky has to romance Sarah by taking her to Havana for dinner and
in return he’ll provide a dozen ‘sinners’ for Sarah’s mission. Surely this is
one betNathan absolutely can't lose? The sizzling New York tale of
gamblers, gangsters and nightclub singers will leave you ‘walking on air’
(Daily Telegraph) with a glorious evening featuring some of Broadway’s
greatest show-stopping tunes, including
Luck be a Lady, Sit Down You're Rockin' the Boat and My Time of Day.
Along with dazzling choreography by world-renowned Cuban ballet star
Carlos Acosta and Andrew Wright (Singin’ in the Rain and Barnum);
direction from the celebrated New Yorker, Gordon Greenberg, Guys and
Dolls is one feel-good show you won’t want to miss.
American Idiot
Green Day's explosive, award-winning Broadway musical American Idiot,
returns to The Arts theatre after a smash-hit run last year. Winner of two
Tony Awards® and the 2010 Grammy Award winner for Best Musical
Show Album, American Idiot is the story of three boyhood friends, each
searching for meaning in a post 9/11 world. The show features the music
of Green Day with the lyrics of its lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong and
book by Billie Joe Armstrong and Michael Mayer. US rock band Green Day
released their American Idiot album back in 2004. Inspired by epic rock
operas such as Jesus Christ Superstar and The Who’s Tommy, the album
soon went multiplatinum, selling over 15m copies to date and winning a
Grammy for Best Rock Album. Now in 2015 they’ve been inducted in to
the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame confirming their reputation as one of the
biggest rock music acts of the last 20 years. Its hit songs include Boulevard
of Broken Dreams, 21 Guns, Wake Me Up When September Ends, Holiday
and the blockbuster title track American Idiot. Also included are several
songs from Green Day’s 2009 release 21st Century Breakdown, and an
unreleased love song, When It’s Time.

The Play That Goes Wrong
Described as Fawlty towers meets noises off, in THE smash hit comedy!
The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society are putting on a 1920’s murder
mystery, but as the title suggests, everything that can go wrong... does!
The accident prone thespians battle against all odds to make it through
to their final curtain call, with hilarious consequences! Given five stars
from the Daily Mail and called ‘ridiculously funny’ by Libby Purves, The
Daily Telegraph sums it up as ‘genuinely hilarious’. Celebrity
endorsements from the likes of Joanna Lumley ‘spectacularly funny and
bitingly accurate’ – The Play That Goes Wrong is guaranteed to leave you
aching with laughter.
The Woman In Black
Proud and solitary, Eel Marsh House surveys the windswept reaches of
the salt marshes beyond Nine Lives Causeway. Arthur Kipps, a junior
solicitor, is summoned to attend the funeral of Mrs Alice Drablow, the
house's sole inhabitant, unaware of the tragic secrets which lie hidden
behind the shuttered windows. It is not until he glimpses a wasted young
woman, dressed all in black, at the funeral, that a creeping sense of
unease begins to take hold, a feeling deepened by the reluctance of the
locals to talk of the woman in black - and her terrible purpose. Years later,
as an old man, he recounts his experiences to an actor in a desperate
attempt to exorcise the ghosts of the past. The play unfolds around the
conversations of these two characters as they act out the solicitor's
experiences on Eel Marsh all those years ago. Unanimously acclaimed by
the critics and now in its 23rd year in the West End, The Woman In Black
combines the power and intensity of live theatre with the cinematic
quality of film noir.
Show Boat
Show Boat tells a powerful story of freedom, loyalty and above all love
set against the backdrop of America’s Deep South at the turn of the 20th
Century. The show’s Broadway premiere changed musical theatre forever
in 1927, and this lavish new production proves that its timeless themes
and peerless music remain as vital, passionate and moving as ever.
So hop on board the Cotton Blossom show boat, and be swept away by
one of the most romantic musicals of all time, directed by Daniel Evans
and featuring the timeless songs Ol’ Man River, Make Believe and Can’t
Help Lovin’ Dat Man from Jerome Kern, with lyrics and book by Oscar
Hammerstein II

1984
April, 1984. 13:00. Comrade 6079, Winston Smith, thinks a thought, starts
a diary, and falls in love. But Big Brother is always watching. Orwell's ideas
have become our ideas; his fiction is often said to be our reality. The
"definitive book of the 20th century" (The Guardian) is re-examined in
Robert Icke and Duncan Macmillan’s radical and much lauded staging
exploring surveillance, identity and why Orwell's vision of the future is as
relevant now as ever.
In The Heights
Welcome to Washington Heights, where life's a struggle but the streets
are jumping to the irresistible rhythms of love, passion, hopes and
dreams. This smash-hit, Tony Award-winning musical is a joyously
uplifting tale of young love in a community on the brink of change, set in
one bustling neighbourhood where everyone knows everybody, and the
breeze carries the sweet sounds of three generations of music. Back to
spice up London following its hugely acclaimed, sell-out season at the
Southwark Playhouse, In The Heights is a thrilling evening of
unforgettable songs and amazing choreography infused with the
scorching rhythms and vibrant energy of a Manhattan heatwave. A wordof-mouth sensation on Broadway that had audiences coming back time
and time again, this life affirming story will enthral and delight audiences
of all ages.
