Things to Know Before You Go
Do I need to know the film or book to enjoy The Devil Wears Prada?
No. If you know the film or the novel you will spot familiar characters and situations, but the musical stands on its own. The story is clearly told on stage, so first-time audiences can follow Andy’s journey from day one at Runway to her final decision without any prior knowledge.
Is The Devil Wears Prada suitable for children and teenagers?
The production is recommended for ages 8 and above. The show deals with adult themes such as workplace pressure, relationships and the fashion industry’s obsession with image, but it is presented with humour and warmth. As always, parents and guardians are best placed to judge whether the tone is right for their young people.
How long does the performance of The Devil Wears Prada last?
The Devil Wears Prada runs for approximately 2 hours 35 minutes, including an interval. This gives plenty of time for a pre-show drink or an ice cream in the break, while still finishing at a comfortable time for catching late trains and tubes home.
What is the overall tone of the show – more comedy or drama?
The musical balances sharp comedy with a surprisingly heartfelt emotional core. There are plenty of knowing jokes about fashion, offices and terrible bosses, but the story ultimately focuses on Andy’s values, her friendships and the choices she makes about her future.
About this show
Trade trainers for stilettos and step inside high-fashion London as The Devil Wears Prada struts onto the Dominion Theatre stage. With an original pop-infused score by Elton John, this brand-new West End musical turns the world of glossy magazines, impossible deadlines and terrifyingly high standards into a sharply observed, laugh-out-loud night out.
Fresh from university, would-be writer Andy Sachs lands a coveted role at Runway, working for editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly, whose approval is as rare as a sample-size shoe. As Andy juggles late-night emails, last-minute demands and a life lived entirely on borrowed designer heels, she must decide what success really means to her. Perfect for fashion lovers and West End girls’ nights, The Devil Wears Prada is a stylish story about ambition, identity and the cost of chasing your dream job.
