They’re back! Following a smash-hit Edinburgh Fringe season and acclaimed London run, multi award-winning comedy company Police Cops returns to Southwark Playhouse Elephant with Police Cops: The Musical.

Featuring an expanded ensemble, a great new score by Brit Award winning Ben Adams (Eugenius! The Musical), and their unique physical comedy mayhem, Police Cops: The Musical is supercharged for its most ambitious London run yet.

The show stars the creators of Police Cops: The Musical – Zachary Hunt, Nathan Parkinson and Tom Roe, with Melinda Orengo and Natassia Bustamante.

Police Cops: The Musical is returning soon to the Southwark Playhouse Elephant from 1 March to 20 April 2024.

USA, 1985: Rookie Police Cop Jimmy Johnson joined the force to protect and serve… But now Jimmy’s in deep, partnered up with a renegade Police Cop and leaned on by a racist Chief. With guns loaded and safety catches off, Jimmy’s on a freewheeling adventure from the mean streets of America to Mexico, where destiny awaits in the form of grizzled ex-Police Cop Juanita Gonzalez. Multi award-winning Police Cops are back and bigger than ever. Featuring an expanded ensemble and original songs, their unique physical comedy mayhem is supercharged for their most ambitious show yet.
