Things to Know Before You Go

Is The Choir of Man suitable for children?

The production is generally recommended for ages 6 and over. It takes place in a pub setting and includes references to drinking, but the tone is warm and celebratory rather than rowdy. Families with older children and teenagers often find it a joyful, accessible introduction to live performance.

How long does The Choir of Man run?

The show runs for around 1 hour 30 minutes with no interval. The continuous format keeps the energy high and makes it easy to fit into an evening alongside dinner or travel plans.

Is The Choir of Man a musical or a concert?

It sits comfortably between the two. There is no traditional plot, but there is a clear emotional journey as the performers share stories and songs that reveal who they are and what the pub means to them. The result feels like a live gig with the heart and structure of a theatre piece.

Can I get a drink during the show?

Yes. The bar in the auditorium is very much part of the experience, and there are moments when selected audience members are invited onto the stage pub itself. Standard theatre bar service is also available before the show and, where offered, during a short pause in the action.

About this show

Welcome to the friendliest pub in the West End, where the beer is poured on stage and the harmonies are as smooth as the stout. The Choir of Man transforms the theatre into a local boozer overflowing with song, as nine performers blend lush vocals, live instruments and heartfelt storytelling in a 90-minute celebration of community.

From classic rock anthems to contemporary chart hits, the set list jumps between genres while the cast share stories of friendship, vulnerability and finding your place at the table. It’s part gig, part lock-in, part group therapy session – an uplifting, feel-good evening that sends audiences back out onto the pavement humming and grinning.
