Broadway’s Biggest Show on the West End’s Biggest Stage

42nd Street is the song and dance American dream fable of Broadway. Young Peggy Sawyer is fresh off the bus from small-town America and just another face in the chorus line in reknowned director Julian Marsh’s newest musical spectacular. But when the leading lady gets injured, Peggy might just have the shot at stardom she’s always dreamed of and finding unexpected romance along the way.

Fantastic night at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane watching a revival of 42nd Street. As long as there was tap dancing I knew I was going to be happy and there was tap dancing - lots and lots of tap dancing. I was very very happy.

A fantastic feel good show with sparkles, costumes , tap dancing, songs, top hats, tap dancing, romance, comedy and... oh did I mention there was tap dancing?

SURE FIRE HIT FOR 2017 AND BEYOND
