A new tour has been announced for Jack Thorne’s cult vampire hit Let the Right One In.
The show is hitting the road following an acclaimed new production at Manchester’s Royal Exchange.
The tour starts on 16 October 2025 at Northampton’s Royal & Derngate Theatre, and then visits London Bromley, Bristol, Salford, Fareham, Cardiff, Southend-on-Sea, Eastbourne, Glasgow, Birmingham, and Liverpool.
Adapted for the stage by Jack Thorne (Adolescence, Toxic Town, His Dark Materials, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, The Motive and the Cue), the production is based on the acclaimed Swedish novel and film by John Ajvide Lindqvist.
A hauntingly beautiful coming-of-age story, Let the Right One In follows lonely teenager Oskar, who is bullied at school and left to his own devices at home. When a mysterious new neighbour, Eli, moves in next door, an unusual friendship blossoms. But Eli is not what they seem, and as a series of grisly murders unfold, Oskar is forced to confront the chilling truth about his only friend.
Let the Right One In – Tour trailer
Let the Right One In has captivated audiences since its stage debut, first brought to life by the National Theatre of Scotland in a production that transferred to London’s Royal Court Theatre and later the Apollo Theatre in the West End. Directed by Tony Award-winner John Tiffany (Once, The Pass), the original production won the South Bank Sky Arts Theatre Award and received widespread acclaim for its striking design, evocative movement, and chillingly immersive atmosphere.
This production marks the revival of the Royal Exchange Theatre’s acclaimed 2022 staging, directed by Bryony Shanahan and presented in association with Marla Rubin Productions Ltd.
Casting to be announced.
Writer Jack Thorne said in a statement: ‘It was such a privilege to adapt Let the Right One In, a story that is so deceptive in terms of the way it looks at genre, gender and at love. I am so excited that more people are going to have the opportunity to see Bryony Shanahan’s sinewy dangerous production.” Read more about Jack Thorne.
