The producers of THE CHOIR OF MAN, the Olivier Award-nominated international smash hit musical that has been wowing audiences night after night in London’s West End, are thrilled to reveal details of the show’s first ever UK Tour in 2026.
The 38-week nationwide tour will stop at 
Milton Keynes Theatre from Tue 26 – Sat 30 May.
Described as the best night at your local pub you’ll ever experience, THE CHOIR OF MAN brings together nine (extra)ordinary men, blending stunning harmonies and rousing sing-alongs with world-class tap dance and heartfelt storytelling.
The show features chart-topping hits from the likes of Queen, Luther Vandross, Sia, Paul Simon, Adele, Guns & Roses, Avicii and Katy Perry. This uplifting celebration of community and camaraderie has something for everyone – including free beer! Expect feel-good, foot-stomping entertainment so infectious you’ll want to see it again and again.
Nic Doodson, Creator and Director, says:
“It’s a huge moment for us to launch THE CHOIR OF MAN’s very first UK national tour. It’s incredible to see how far the show has come from our start at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2017 and now, after four years in London’s West End, Olivier Award recognition, and multiple tours across Europe, Australia, and our fourth U.S. national tour in 2026, it feels incredibly special to finally be taking the show on the road at home. Bringing our pub to audiences across the UK has always been a dream.”
THE CHOIR OF MAN has already enjoyed three sold-out seasons at the Sydney Opera House, alongside hugely successful tours across the US and Europe. Its fourth North American tour will run from December 2025 to March 2026, visiting 45 cities with 68 performances, including residencies in West Palm Beach and a return to Cleveland. In London’s West End, the production opened at the Arts Theatre in 2021, where it has surpassed 1,000 performances, with many sell-out shows and an Olivier Award nomination for ‘Best Entertainment or Comedy Play.’ The West End run continues at the Arts Theatre until 4 January 2026.
The show also champions important causes and partnerships: in 2023 it announced a collaboration with suicide prevention charity CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), and in 2025 teamed up with Signature Brew as its Official Alcohol-Free Beer Partner.
