Expect a glamorous, Golden Age experience filled with iconic songs, elegant staging, and the sparkle of two beloved stars of stage and screen.
You're invited to the most swell party of the year as this summer's eagerly anticipated production delivers another glorious dose of Golden Age musical theatre escapism.
Helen George (Call the Midwife, The King and I) leads the cast as the glamorous Tracy Lord, joined by stage and screen favourites Felicity Kendal (Rosemary and Thyme), Freddie Fox (Slow Horses) and Julian Ovenden (South Pacific). Carly Mercedes Dyer (Anything Goes, A Chorus Line) and Nigel Lindsay (Kiss Me, Kate) return to the Barbican, joined by Malcolm Sinclair (Pie in the Sky).
Join the 28-strong cast as plans for the society wedding of the year descend into chaos, with old flames and new sparks vying for attention while a sharp-eyed tabloid reporter hunts for scandal at the waterfront estate.
Brought to life by a multi award-winning creative team, including Rachel Kavanaugh and choreographer Anthony Van Laast, High Society rings in the summer season, hot on the heels of Anything Goes and Kiss Me, Kate.
