The King's Speech - Tour Dates
Performance information is for guidance only. Check booking calendar for details.
A new stage adaptation of the Oscar-winning film The King’s Speech by David Seidler has been announced.
A country on the precipice of another terrible war. An abdicated king. A constitutional crisis. And the only man who can provide hope for the nervous British public is Bertie – a man who is shy, unprepared for monarchy and, worst of all, has a debilitating speech impediment.
With the future of the monarchy, and Britain itself, on the line, an historic radio address looms over a man who can barely stammer through full sentences. Desperate, Bertie and his family turn to an unconventional speech therapist from Australia to turn him into the king Britain can believe in.
As royal protocol meets unorthodox challenges, what emerges is an unlikely but deeply meaningful friendship.
Adapted from the Oscar-winning film, this exciting new production of The King’s Speech from the acclaimed Barn Theatre blends humour, heart and high stakes in a beloved drama about duty, courage and finding one’s voice. Casting is yet to be announced.
The King’s Speech will be performed at the Theatre Royal Bath from 22 – 27 February 2027. There are currently no details on a London transfer for the show, but check back for details or sign-up for alerts.
