Featuring an irresistible score by country music legend Dolly Parton, this hit show follows three office workers who’ve had enough of their overbearing, chauvinistic boss. When a wild idea turns into a daring plan for revenge, chaos, comedy and sisterhood take centre stage.

Inspired by the much-loved 1980s film, 9 to 5 The Musical is a joyful story about friendship, courage and standing up for what’s right, all set to toe-tapping tunes you’ll be humming long after the curtain falls.

Our Man in Havana, adapted by Clive Francis from Graham Greene’s novel, follows James Wormold, a British vacuum cleaner salesman in pre-revolutionary Havana, Cuba.

Struggling financially to support his spoiled daughter, Wormold is recruited by MI6 agent Hawthorne to be a spy. Lacking any actual spy skills or intentions, Wormold fabricates an entire network of fictional agents and reports, using his imagination and local bar conversations. His absurd reports, claiming to depict secret weapons, are taken seriously by MI6, leading to real-world consequences as the Cuban government grows suspicious. A wonderfully funny and fast-moving romp!

When celebrated TV medium Darius Divine, host of hit light-entertainment show The Other Side, plans a cosy family dinner, he expects awkward small talk. He doesn’t expect his pregnant lover, his Gilbert-and-Sullivan-obsessed mother-in-law, or a night of ghostly visitations and explosive revelations. As dinner burns and tensions rise, the line between performance and reality begins to shatter. Secrets surface. Jealousies ignite. And a final twist lands that no one will see coming.

Funny, shocking and deliciously unsettling, this is a wild theatrical ride that will have you laughing one minute and gasping the next.

A jury has murder on their minds and a life in their hands as they decide the fate of a young delinquent accused of killing his father.

The Anastasia File

To:24-10-2026
+ More Info +

'They defend me. They attack me. It seems to me the world is consumed with curiosity about me and will remain so for the rest of time. And I will tell you why. They do want the answer. They want the mystery.'

Jenny Seagrove (Judge John Deed) reprises her critically acclaimed performance in Royce Ryton’s The Anastasia File, as part of The Theatre Royal Windsor Season on tour.

July 1918. Tsar Nicholas II and his family are brutally executed by the Bolsheviks in Ekaterinburg. Two years later in Berlin, a woman is pulled from a canal after a failed attempt to take her own life and is placed in an institutional facility. As Doctors and police puzzle over her identity, she slowly begins to reveal details about her past that bring about the suspicion that she may in fact be the Grand Duchess Anastasia, the heir to the Romanov fortune.

Inspired by the true story of Anne Manahan, whose thirty-year battle for recognition as the last surviving Romanov was one of the most popular historical mysteries of the twentieth century.

Directed by Roy Marsden, Seagrove is joined by Simon Shepherd (Peak Practice), Ashley D. Gayle (The Shawshank Redemption) and Rosie Thomson (EastEnders).

As Bazza faces a flashy young magician, a no-nonsense new manager, and the family he left behind, the lines between performance and reality begin to blur.

Deep in the heart of the corridors of power, the Labour Party's Roy Jenkins, Denis Healey and Tony Crosland clash over the soul of British socialism and their own relentless ambitions.

Set against the backdrop of economic crisis, Robert Khan and Tom Salinsky’s acclaimed political drama brings to life the personalities, principles and private tensions that shaped a generation of politics.

Following a sell-out smash hit run in London, this ????? play returns for a major national tour this autumn. A chance to revisit a defining moment in the battle for the soul of the Labour Party, where towering intellects, fierce rivalries and the private tensions behind public power.

The Hollow
From:24-11-2026

Renowned detective Hercule Poirot expected a quiet break in the country; instead he's drawn into one of the most unsettling cases of his career.

At The Hollow, an elegant country estate, a glamorous circle of guests gather together one summer evening. But beneath the sunlit charm, something darker coils. Old passions refuse todie. New rivalries ignite. Dangerous infatuations take hold. Then—a shot rings out.

A body is discovered. A smoking revolver in an unsteady hand. The scene appears almost staged; a shockingly straightforward crime...It is anything but.

As alibis unravel and masks begin to slip, Poirot finds himself navigating a treacherous web of desire, jealousy and betrayal, where love curdles into cruelty—and everyone has something to hide.

Following sell-out tours of Murder on the Orient Express and Death on the Nile, Fiery Angel reunites with director Lucy Bailey to bring this darkly seductive new staging of one of Agatha Christie’s most compelling mysteries The Hollow to theatres across the UK.

The Turn of the Screw
From:02-02-2027

+ More Info +

Based on the seminal ghost story by Henry James
Directed by Nicky Allpress

England. A remote country house. A young governess, hired to care for two seemingly angelic children, begins what appears to be an idyllic new life. Yet there is something about the children that hints at a darker presence.

Desperate to protect them from what she believes to be malevolent spirits, she finds herself descending into a world of ambiguity, leading to one far-reaching question; are the ghosts real... or a projection of something far more terrifying?

A masterwork of psychological suspense and the inspiration for Susan Hill’s The Woman in Black, The Turn of the Screw is brought to life in this brand-new stage adaptation by Olivier Award-winning playwright Morgan Lloyd Malcolm, combining powerful performances, illusion and stylish theatricality.
