The Choir of Man, the Olivier award-nominated international smash hit musical that thrills audiences night after night in London’s West End, will visit Mayflower Theatre from Tuesday 3 to Saturday 7 November 2026.
Set in on-stage pub The Jungle, The Choir of Man is the best trip to your local you’ll ever have. Here, a cast of nine (extra)ordinary guys combine beautiful harmonies and foot-stomping singalongs with world-class tap dance and soulful storytelling.
Featuring hits from artists such as Queen, Luther Vandross, Sia, Paul Simon, Adele, Guns & Roses, Avicii and Katy Perry, this uplifting celebration of community and friendship offers something for everyone – including free beer!
This is feel-good, foot-stomping entertainment so good you’ll want to come back and see it again and again.
The producers also announced The Jungle Choir Community Project, a new nationwide initiative inviting local choirs to take part in the production on opening night in every touring city.
The Jungle Choir Community Project involved a search for local choirs in each touring city, who will be invited to attend the opening night performance and take part in the final moments of the show.
The Choir of Man is created by Nic Doodson and Andrew Kay, directed by Nic Doodson, with musical supervision, vocal arrangements and orchestrations by Jack Blume, movement direction and choreography by Freddie Huddleston, monologues written by Ben Norris, scenic design by Oli Townsend, lighting design by Richard Dinnen, costume design and co-scenic design by Verity Sadler, sound design by Sten Severson, casting by Debbie O’Brien.
“It’s a huge moment for us to launch The Choir of Man’s very first UK national tour,” says Nic Doodson. “It’s incredible to see how far the show has come from our start at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2017 and now, after four years in London’s West End, Olivier Award recognition, and multiple tours across Europe, Australia, and our fourth U.S. national tour in 2026, it feels incredibly special to finally be taking the show on the road at home.
“Bringing our pub to audiences across the UK has always been a dream.”
