London’s world famous Theatreland is set to expand with the addition of a new venue, custom-built to bring acclaimed musical, OSCAR at the Crown to life, following its success Stateside.
Behind an unassuming door on Tottenham Court Road, visitors will be transported to a secret bunker far in the fascist future, where the only things to survive are reality TV, glitter balls and the complete works of Oscar Wilde.
The underground dystopian musical invites guests to drink, party and join the throng of colourful outcasts among burnt-out tube carriages and smashed TV screens, as they ignite the fiery embers of a cultural revolution in an Orwellian future, propelled by the dramatic rise and fall of the flamboyant literary icon.
The theatrical dance party experience will make its London premiere with an ambitious reworking, featuring brand new songs and after show parties, following its hit performances at Brooklyn’s 3 Dollar Bill, where New York Times branded it “a party-inducing Rocky Horror transplanted to a 1990s Madonna video.”
Theatre lovers can sign up HERE for exclusive access to limited £25 preview seats for London’s hotly anticipated new show in May.
Tickets go on sale on 13 March ahead of the show’s official launch in June 2025.
