Hercules , the musical is inspired by the 1997 Academy Award®-nominated animated film of the same name from Walt Disney Studios.
Hercules, played by Luke Brady, isn’t quite a god and isn’t quite a mortal. But if he’s not a god, how can he possibly save the world from Hades? It’s one thing flexing those pecs, but going from zero to hero requires a different kind of strength.
This production makes it three Greek musicals now in London and booking through to September 2026. Can you name the others? Answer at the bottom of the page)

Hercules FAQs
What hotels are near the theatre?
The Theatre Royal is just by Covent Garden in the heart of Theatreland. The Nell Gwynn pub is opposite and the Royal Opera House is round the corner. So there are over 40 hotels within a mile or a 20 minute walk. Three star theatre breaks start at £138 per person, but of course in that area there are also some very fine 4 and five star hotels.
Personally I am never in a hotel long enough for me to warrant splashing out on a five star hotel so for me the Wilde Aparthotels are nice and really close and not too pricey, and only a few hundred yards further is the 4 star Thistle Holborn. in Bloomsbury, which is a really pleasant area just outside the hubbub of the West End. Of course if you want hub-bub, you can’t get more central or much closer to the theatre itself than the Strand Palace Hotel.
The theatre is also really close to Covent Garden Tube station, so if you want to stay somewhere else in London – maybe Kensington or Knightsbridge or Kings Cross, then just hop on the tube and the Piccadilly line will have you there in no time flat.
And the other two Greek musicals? Hadestown and Mamma Mia! of course!
