Burlesque Theatre Breaks in 2026
Like a quick flash of side boob on a red carpet, of an opening night, Burlesque The Musical made a brief appearance at the Savoy Theatre last summer. In 2026 it is coming back. Now Burlesque invites you to a club like no other: a hidden world beneath the city lights where sequins sparkle, seduction shimmers and lives can change in the flick of a feather boa.
This is the musical version of the smash hit movie that starred Cher, Christina Aguilera, Alan Cumming, Eric Dane, Cam Gigandet, Julianne Hough, Peter Gallagher, Kristen Bell and Stanley Tucci et al.
It sold out night after night at the Savoy, so we know it is a little bobby dazzler if a show before it lands at the Arts Theatre Marble Arch in September 2026.
The story, if you haven’t seen the movie goes like this. When Ali heads to New York City in search of her mother, she finds herself drawn into a dazzling underground world of music and dance that will change her life forever.
A scintillating journey of self-discovery that absolutely sizzles with songs by Christina Aguilera, Sia and Diane Warren, alongside additional songs by Todrick Hall and Jess Folley.
That was not the first time that Burlesque was on the Strand. In fact The Strand had been a home to burlesque since the late 1800’s. So as you wander up the famous street, know that you are not the first. I’m not sure burlesque has been seen at the Savoy before… maybe D’Oyley Carte did a burlesque version of The Pirates of Penzance back in the day. That could work. The Slave of Beauty!
Anyway! Back to your Burlesque theatre break.
Burlesque and Hotel Packages
Burlesque will move to the other side of town: Marble Arch to be precise and the new home of the Arts Theatre.
What hotels are close to the theatre?
Near by hotels that are the perfect base for a Burlesque theatre Break include the lovely, friendly Cumberland Hotel: a four star hotel just across the road. The Voco is a great boutique hotel within a short walk and if you are really going for it there is always the Intercontinental Park Lane.
Otherwise it is no hardship to hop on the tube and head for Kensington or Lancaster Gate and pick up a bargain in one of the hotels in these areas just a few stops away.
