GThe hit Geordie comedy Gerry & Sewell completed its West End run at the Aldwych Theatre in London on 24 January 2026.

Visitors searching for Gerry & Sewell tickets in London should note that the production has now closed following its limited engagement.

After selling out theatres across the North East, Gerry & Sewell made its London debut for a two-week run in January 2026.

Written and directed by Olivier Award-winner Jamie Eastlake, the show is based on Jonathan Tulloch’s novel The Season Ticket – later adapted into the cult film Purely Belter.

A feel-good story with real heart

Meet Gerry and Sewell – two lads from Gateshead with nowt but a dream: to get their hands on a season ticket for Newcastle United. Broke but determined, they’ll take on the world (and a few radgie charvers) to make it happen. Funny, raw and uplifting, the story celebrates friendship, football, loyalty and daring to want something more.

From its humble beginnings in a 60-seat pub theatre in North Tyneside to sold-out runs at Live Theatre and Newcastle Theatre Royal, Gerry & Sewell has captured hearts across the UK.

Expect live music, puppet dogs and the roar of Wor Flags in this high-energy love letter to the North East.

Gerry & Sewell ran at the Aldwych Theatre in London from 13 to 24 January 2026.
