Four professional singers bring songs from Les Mis, Wicked, Phantom and other musicals to life in a candlelight concert at Babbacombe Theatre.
A Night at the Musicals comes to Babbacombe Theatre on Friday 2 April 2027, with the show starting at 7:30 pm. It's a candlelight concert, so the whole thing is set beneath the warm glow of candlelight rather than the usual stage lights. The evening is built around four professional singers performing songs from some of the world's most well-known musicals, and the setlist pulls from a wide range of West End and Broadway hits.
Among the shows they'll be drawing from are Les Misérables, The Phantom of the Opera, Wicked, The Greatest Showman, Mamma Mia!, Hamilton, Grease, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, We Will Rock You and Chicago. It's a broad mix, so you'll hear everything from the big ballads of Phantom and Les Mis to the pop-driven numbers of Mamma Mia! and Grease, with Hamilton and The Greatest Showman bringing in more recent additions. The whole thing is performed as a concert rather than a full production, so the focus is on the singing rather than the costumes and sets.
Babbacombe Theatre has been part of the English Riviera for over eighty years, known for its family variety shows, especially since Matpro Limited took over the venue in 1986. It's located at Babbacombe Downs, Torquay, TQ1 3LU, and it's fully accessible, with a disabled toilet, wheelchair spaces and a loop system.
