Brighton – What's On guide – From April 2024

From April 2024

The big, bold and beautiful musical – Hairspray is back in Brighton!

Welcome to Theatre Royal Brighton

We are delighted to present our new season What’s On guide with lots of fantastic shows on offer. Whether you prefer an exciting drama or a dazzling musical, you’ll be spoilt for choice.

It’s an exciting time at Theatre Royal Brighton as we continue our restoration project. In January this year we replaced all the Stalls seats, which improves our access offering across this level, and restored the decor throughout our auditorium and foyer, including walls, paintwork and carpets. Many of the improvements last year were behind the scenes, so we’re thrilled to have moved into this phase where our audiences will be able to see and enjoy the benefits of the works.

Meanwhile, the restoration of our venue façade also continues, with a planned unveiling this summer. Our Ambassador Lounge is the ideal way to make your theatre visit even more special. Packages start at £20 including a glass of fizz and a dedicated member of bar staff in this exclusive experience.

We have bars on every level offering audiences the chance to enjoy a drink or snack during their visit. Or why not try our Delivered At Seat ordering service?

Finally, have you had the chance to visit The Colonnade Bar since we reopened in December? Perfect for a pre or post theatre drink or whenever you are in town and fancy a glass of something lovely!

Thank you for your continued support.

Le Fils du Grand Réseau: Fishbowl

Thu 23 – Sat 25 May

Laugh-out-loud silent comedy from an award-winning French company. Written and directed by Pierre Guillois. Co-written by Agathe L’Huillier and Olivier Martin-Salvan.

Once upon a time, in three small attic apartments in Paris, a big man, a tall thin man and a curvaceous blonde are neighbours. This would be a romantic story if it wasn’t for the fact that these three oddballs have a special talent for messing things up. Messing everything up.

Winner of the Molière Award for Best Comedy, Fishbowl is a masterful piece of physical comedy and technical wizardry that follows the hilarious misadventures of three eccentric and lovable anti-heroes separated only by paper-thin walls. Ages 8+

‘This totally irresistible burlesque melodrama will make you laugh out loud. The belly laughs just keep on coming. Laughter, laughter, and more laughter.’ – Le Figaro

Afghanistan is on the verge of war and best friends are about to be torn apart. On a beautiful afternoon in Kabul, the skies full of colour and the streets full of the excitement of a kite flying tournament, no one can foresee the terrible incident that will shatter their lives forever.
