Room on the Broom is flying back to the West End this Christmas for a limited run at the Lyric Theatre.

Based on Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s classic picture book, this acclaimed stage show embarks on a major UK tour this October visiting 30 venues including the Lyric Theatre in London’s West End from 22 November 2024 to 5 January 2025.

Produced by Tall Stories, the acclaimed theatre company behind stage adaptations of The Gruffalo, The Smeds and The Smoos, The Snail and the Whale and The Gruffalo’s Child, this new UK tour will open at the Z-arts in Manchester on 22 October 2024 and finishing at the Belgrade Theatre in Coventry on 26 April 2025.

Universally acclaimed, Room on the Broom is the perfect introduction to theatre for young children. Aimed at kids 3+, this fun filled musical features magical puppetry, sing-a-long songs and hilarious fun. First adapted for the stage in 2008, the show has travelled the world delighting children in the UK, Ireland, Australia, Europe and the Far East.

As previously announced more Tall Stories production’s are coming back to the West End including The Smeds and The Smoos for summer 2025 and The Gruffalo, which opens to today for a summer season at the Lyric Theatre.

Toby Mitchell, Tall Stories’ artistic director and co-founder, said: “Tall Stories has produced 31 shows in our 27 years of existence – including five adaptations of much-loved books by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, alongside many smaller scale shows. We first brought ‘Room on the Broom’ to the stage in 2008 and since then it’s toured nationally and beyond – including France, Germany, the US, Australia and the Far East. We were delighted that the show was nominated for an Olivier Award in 2013 and we’re particularly excited about bringing some magical spells, catchy songs and lots of laughter to family audiences this autumn – and we can’t wait to see all those smiling faces.”

Room on the Broom runs at the Lyric Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue, in London’s West End from 22 November 2024 to 5 January 2025.
