Starlight Express - Troubadour Wembley - Matinee

Starlight Express - Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre - Matinee

 

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Starlight Express opens summer 2024 in the specially designed Starlight Auditorium  at Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre.

 

Audiences will be immersed inside a world of speed, song and storytelling as an incredible cast of 40 whizz around and above, performing some of musical theatre’s most beloved songs, including AC/DC, Make Up My Heart, Light at the End of the Tunnel and the iconic Starlight Express. 

 

As a child’s train set magically comes to life and the engines race to become the fastest in the world, Rusty the steam train has little hope of winning until he is inspired by the legend of the ‘Starlight Express’.

 

Seen around the world by over 20 million people, Starlight Express  is an electrifying experience for all ages.

 

With music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Richard Stilgoe, the creative team is helmed by acclaimed director Luke Sheppard (&Juliet, The Little Big Things), set designer Tim Hatley (Back to the Future), video designer Andrzej Goulding (Life of Pi), costume designer Gabriella Slade (Six), lighting designer Howard Hudson (&Juliet) and sound designer Gareth Owen (MJ the Musical) with new orchestrations and musical supervision by Matthew Brind.

 

With thrilling new choreography by Ashley Nottingham (Pacific Overtures)  and casting by Pearson Casting CDG, Starlight Express also sees the return of Arlene Phillips as creative dramaturg.

 

The running time is approx 2 hours 20 minutes including an interval. 

 

Starlight Express features roller-skating on tracks close to the audience, pyrotechnics, flashing and strobe lighting effects, haze, simulated sparks, flame & smoke effects, and some loud sound effects. 

 

The venue will open two hours prior to the start of the performance. All bags are subject to searches so please arrive 30 minutes before the performance start time to avoid queues. A cloakroom is available for use during the show with a charge of £1 per item.

 

Latecomers may not be permitted until a suitable break in the performance, which may be the interval.

 

Please note, due to the exciting and immersive nature of the Starlight Auditorium, audience members must remain seated once the performance begins and there is no readmission to the auditorium during the show.
