Love Story returns –Inspired by Erich Segal’s best-selling iconic novel, also one of the most romantic films of all time, this life-affirming musical is scored by the Emmy and BAFTA award winning composer Howard Goodall and enjoyed a successful run earlier in the year as part of the Chichester Festival. Michael Ball is helping to produce this musical version of Love Story in the West End where it opens this autumn.

Vertical Road – Returning to the London stage with his new piece Vertical Road, Akram Khan speaks openly about his rehearsal process and the inspiration behind his new work. One of the UK’s most innovative and influential dance talents, Khan has created several high profile dance pieces, none more so than his collaboration with Juliette Binoche in-i from 2008.

More Salad Days at Riverside With its celebrated theatrical flair, Tête à Tête creates a magical park where you can absorb this delicious comedy from the comfort of your seat or perhaps on the Astroturf picnic lawn. Salad Days enjoyed a short run last year and it makes a welcome return to bewitch more crowds at the Riverside Studios this winter. With some ticket packages complete with Pimms and triangular sandwiches, this is a sure fire winter warmer and will no doubt provide much musical brightness.
