Disney's Hercules: A West End Spectacle Coming to Theatre Royal Drury Lane

LONDON, Virgin Islands, British - Jan. 3, 2025 - PRLog -- Disney's Hercules is making its highly anticipated West End debut at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Inspired by Disney's 1997 animated classic, the musical will begin performances on June 6, 2025, and runs until January 10, 2026. Tickets are officially on sale now, promising an unforgettable theatrical experience for fans of all ages.

The production's creative team is a powerhouse of award-winning talent. Eight-time Oscar-winning composer Alan Menken and Tony-winning lyricist David Zippel return to infuse the stage adaptation with music and lyrics that made the film a beloved classic, including hits like "Go The Distance," "Zero to Hero" and "I Won't Say (I'm In Love)." Audiences can also look forward to brand-new songs that deepen the storyline and character development.

The book for the musical has been reimagined by Tony Award winner Robert Horn (Tootsie) and acclaimed playwright Kwame Kwei-Armah, former artistic director of The Young Vic. Direction and choreography are helmed by Tony-winning Casey Nicholaw, renowned for hits like Mean Girls and The Book of Mormon, with co-choreography by Tanisha Scott.

Complementing the narrative and musical brilliance are stunning visuals designed to transport audiences to ancient Greece. The creative team includes Dane Laffrey (set and video design), Gregg Barnes and Sky Switser (costume design), Jeff Croiter (lighting design), and Adam Fisher (sound design).

Special effects by Jeremy Chernick and video design by George Reeve promise an immersive spectacle. The attention to detail extends to hair and makeup, with designs by Oscar-winner Mia M Neal and Kirk Cambridge-Del Pesche.

Hercules' journey of self-discovery and heroism is brought to life with the same heartfelt humour and adventure that captivated audiences in the original animated film, directed by John Musker and Ron Clements. This production preserves the essence of the 1997 classic while offering a fresh perspective.

Theatre Royal Drury Lane, a historic venue in London's West End, provides the perfect setting for this grand-scale musical. Disney's Hercules joins an illustrious lineup of Disney productions in the UK, including The Lion King, which recently celebrated 25 years at the Lyceum Theatre.
