Blt Youth: Bugsy Malone

Blt Youth are bringing Bugsy Malone to the Brighton Little Theatre in March 2027, with three performances over two weekends. It's a musical set in New York in 1929, a world of speakeasies, gangsters and mayhem where rival mobs battle for control and Bugsy finds himself caught in the crossfire. The production is billed as a riotous musical adventure, packed with unforgettable songs, hilarious characters and plenty of mischief.

If you're not familiar with the story, it's a little musical full of trouble, and that's a fair way to describe it. The plot centres on the clash between two rival gangs in Prohibition-era New York, with Bugsy caught in the middle of the fray. It's as much about the songs and the characters as it is about the gangsters, and the whole thing is played for laughs.

There are three dates to choose from, so you can pick the one that fits your week. The first is Wednesday 17 March at 19:30, followed by Friday 19 March also at 19:30, and a matinee on Saturday 20 March at 12:00. Standard tickets are £8.00, a guide price, and the venue is the Brighton Little Theatre at 9 Clarence Gardens, Brighton, BN1 2EG.
