West End Musical Brunch

West End Musical Brunch is back in London from Saturday 24 October, running on Saturdays and selected Sundays. It's an over-18s afternoon that puts you inside the show rather than just in the audience: the session opens with an hour of bottomless cocktails and soft drinks, followed by a two-course meal and five hours of live show tunes. You're encouraged to sing and dance along to the hits, with Defying Gravity, Fame and Grease Lightnin among the songs that usually get the room going.

The music comes from West End stars, a resident West End dance troupe, and immersive characters. The troupe, West End Wendy's, performs choreographed routines on a small stage, and there's a chance to meet the cast afterwards. Past performers have come from Wicked, Les Misérables, Hamilton, The Phantom of the Opera, The Book of Mormon, Waitress and The Lion King.

It's now in its seventh year, with more than 100,000 people having gone through the doors. The whole thing is run by Neighbourhood Events Ltd.

Tickets for the general release afternoon session are £85.54, and it runs from 12:00 to 17:00. The venue is a secret Central London location, which they reveal a week before the event.
