Sing the Musicals

Sing the Musicals comes to The Alban Arena on Saturday 17 April 2027, starting at 7.30pm. It's a West End-style singalong concert, which is exactly what it sounds like: a live band and character singers performing favourites from major musicals, with a giant screen displaying the lyrics so you can sing every word yourself. It's billed as the first national tour of the greatest musicals of all time, taken direct from London's West End.

The setlist is a broad run through some of the biggest names in musical theatre. You'll hear songs from Mamma Mia!, The Greatest Showman, Dirty Dancing, Les Misérables, The Phantom of the Opera, Rocky Horror, Mary Poppins, Oliver! and We Will Rock You. That's a fair bit of ground to cover in one evening, and the mix runs from the big ballads of Les Mis and Phantom to the more upbeat numbers of Mamma Mia! and We Will Rock You.

It's not just a concert to listen to. The whole thing is built around the audience joining in, and the lyrics on the screen mean you don't have to know every line by heart to get involved. The show has picked up some strong reviews along the way: What's On called it 'Best Night Ever', Time Out described it as 'Electrifying', and Musical Theatre Live called it 'Every Musical Theatre Fan's Dream Come True'.

Tickets are £30 plus a £3.50 transaction fee, and the show starts at 7.30pm at The Alban Arena, Civic Centre, St Albans, Hertfordshire AL1 3LD.
