Brighton Year-Round 2026
A must-see for anyone compelled by ballet; something we’re not likely to see in Brighton for years.
Mike Stoneham deserves acclaim for this one-man tour-de-farce, that keeps the Rabelaisian fires burning.
Polly Teale has released the daemons, but Nettie Sheridan’s ensemble has delivered Jane Eyre’s feeling to a pitch remarkable even for BLT. With a twilight and sunny consummation at BOAT, it’s even more outstanding.
Don’t miss this. You’ll be surprised. Particularly if you think you know the badgers.
Brave, bold and really worth seeing above much else: even in a busy Festival.
This is the finest new musical I’ve seen for many years. End of. The hype, the Oliviers and Tony call it right. See it.
This one-time hit though now rarely-staged Olivier-winning play is worth tracking down; and you’ve a little more time to find it in Southwick.
Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
With a re-think more thorough than a new fuel-tank for Priscilla, it’s now an outstanding show.
There’s potential for this to be a taut-paced thriller with higher stakes than the original. As it stands, this isn’t yet quite ready but there’s months ahead to make it work.
That rare event: a new musical with classic inscribed on it. Outstanding.
The Choir of Man brings us joy whilst bursting with talent. But it’s a timely reminder of what’s at stake.
An outstanding revival and adaptation, a faultless cast, an award-winning set too. Brighton has been lucky in its last three productions. This though is the gem. Outstanding.
The Spy Who Came In From The Cold
This desperate elegy of betrayal, straight from Le Carré’s own hurt, will haunt you with the truth of its despair.
Hope Fletcher raises soaring music theatre, an ounce of gold in the throat and stars six inches above it.
