Lovers Actually London tickets – Musical Parody

This Christmas, get ready for cheeky charm, outrageous laughs, and festive fun in Lovers Actually – a brand new musical parody from the creators of last year’s smash hit Homo Alone!

Following two sold-out festive triumphs, the irrepressible Jodie Prenger (Coronation Street, I’d Do Anything) returns to The Other Palace Studio for a third time – joined once again by Neil Hurst (Fat Friends The Musical, Casualty) – to unleash a hilariously naughty parody of Britain’s most beloved Christmas romcom: Love Actually.

What Is Lovers Actually About?

From Downing Street dance breaks to cue card confessions and turtlenecked heartbreak, Lovers Actually gives Love Actually the festive roasting it deserves – and then some! Expect filthy fun, fabulous festivities, and a sleighful of laugh-out-loud moments in this musical parody packed with all your favourite characters – but with a lot more glitter, chaos and cheeky surprises.

Will the Prime Minister finally get his Christmas wish? Will Mark steal his best friend’s new wife? Will we give the nation’s most beloved Christmas film a cheeky, festive kick in the mistletoe?! You’re damn right we will!

Why You’ll Love It

  • Homo Alone was the best-selling Christmas show in The Other Palace Studio’s history – and Lovers Actually promises to go even bigger.

  • Written by Jodie Prenger and Neil Hurst, the team behind A Very Very Bad Cinderella and Homo Alone.
  • Perfect for a Christmas night out with friends or anyone who thinks Love Actually is ripe for a riotous send-up.
  • Lobsters welcome!
