Paddington The Musical

A stage musical drawn from Michael Bond's Paddington stories, presented at the Savoy Theatre in London, with original songs by Tom Fletcher and a book by Jessica Swale.

This new production builds on the characters created in Michael Bond's books and on the award-winning films. Luke Sheppard directs, Tom Fletcher writes the original music and lyrics, and the book is by Jessica Swale, an Olivier Award winner.

The story follows a small bear who travels from Peru to London in search of a new home. A chance meeting with the Brown family brings him to Windsor Gardens, but when his safety is put in peril, the Browns must decide how far they are willing to go, and what they are willing to risk, to keep him. The stage version combines its songs and choreography with this narrative, and the family drama runs alongside the lighter moments of life in the household.

The Savoy Theatre, where the show is staged, is a London venue that hosts concerts and other shows.
