Just last week, Burlesque The Musical postponed its London production, and delayed the opening of its UK tour, announcing that the touring production would now launch in Sunderland on August 6, instead of the previously announced opening engagement in Woking. BroadwayWorld has learned that tickets are no longer available to purchase for August 6-12, delaying the start of performances by another week.
Rumors began circulating on social media earlier this month as people shared that allegedly, there were delays with the load-in at the Woking Theatre. Carl Woodward shared on social media last week that the show’s production manager had allegedly quit and freelancers had yet to be paid. At that time, the Woking run was still listed on the theatre’s website, but this week, eagle-eyed fans noticed that the ticketing page for the Woking stop had it marked as “closed.”
Additionally, according to social media posts, ticketholders for the planned London run at The Arts at Marble Arch received an email this week stating that the run was no longer proceeding as planned. It has been confirmed by the show’s representatives that the London engagement has been postponed to 2027. The show will no longer be held as the Marble Arch venue, and is looking for a new home.
Based on Steven Antin’s Golden Globe-winning and Best Picture-nominated film starring Christina Aguilera and Cher, Burlesque The Musical is hitting the stage, featuring songs by Christina Aguilera, Sia, Diane Warren, Jess Folley, Todrick Hall, and Steven Antin.
