CN Live production with four West End stars and the CN Live Orchestra singing songs from musicals such as Les Misérables, Wicked and Mamma Mia!
Magic of the Musicals comes to The Albany Theatre on Saturday 24 April 2027, a CN Live production that brings West End talent to Coventry for an evening of musical theatre. It's a concert rather than a full production, so the focus is on the songs themselves rather than a plot.
The set draws from some of the biggest names in the West End. You'll hear songs from Les Misérables, The Phantom of the Opera, Mary Poppins, Jesus Christ Superstar, Wicked and Mamma Mia! — a broad sweep of the musical theatre songbook, from the big ballads to the more upbeat numbers. It's a good mix, so if you've got a favourite from one of those, there's a fair chance it'll be in there.
On stage, four West End stars lead the way, backed by the CN Live Orchestra and rising local talent. The production describes it as bringing West End talent directly to Coventry, pairing professional voices with a live orchestra and local performers. It's suitable for all ages, so it works as a family outing as much as a night out for musical theatre fans.

The show starts at 5:30pm and runs for around an hour, which makes it a relatively short evening. Tickets are £34 full price, £31 for Matinee Club members, and £25 for children, with prices starting from £25. If you're taking the kids, it's a fairly easy one to fit in before dinner.
