Stephen Sondheim’s Old Friends is coming to the West End with a limited run, and tickets are on sale now. Here’s everything you need to know about the show including how to get tickets. <\/p>
Sondheim fans rejoice! Old Friends is returning by popular demand to the West End this autumn for a limited 16-week run.<\/p>\n
The show is a tribute to Stephen Sondheim and was written as a one-off event which was performed last year on the West End with demand so high that it was live streamed to another West End theatre so fans could experience the show which was being performed less than a mile away. Stars in the original concert included Judi Dench, Helena Bonham Carter and Damien Lewis.<\/p>\n
If you couldn\u2019t get tickets for that event you\u2019ll be pleased to know that you can see Old Friends from its opening on Monday 18th September 2023 until Saturday 6th January 2024.<\/p>\n
The show is a tribute to Sondheim, who died in 2021. This composer and lyricist hardly needs an introduction, and wrote the lyrics for many of the best-known American musicals including West Side Story, and wrote both music and lyrics for countless productions including Company, Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and Into the Woods.<\/p>\n
Stephen Sondheim\u2019s Old Friends was devised by friend of Sondheim, Cameron Mackintosh, and will be directed by Matthew Bourne. Here\u2019s everything you need to know about how to get tickets.<\/p>\n
