Last year it was announced that Titanic The Musical would be touring for the first time in the UK and Ireland in 2018. Having received its UK premiere in 2013 at Southwark Playhouse, the production returned to London in 2016 for an 11-week season at the Charing Cross Theatre, where it won overwhelming critical acclaim.

"It’s an evening both shattering and gorgeous…

The day after seeing it, I went back to see it again. It’s that good."

Titanic The Musical On First UK and Ireland Tour

RMS Titanic

In the final hour of 14th April 1912, the RMS Titanic, on her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York, collided with an iceberg, and 'the unsinkable ship' slowly sank. It was one of the most tragic and infamous disasters of the 20th Century. 1517 men, women, and children lost their lives.

Titanic The Musical

Based on real people aboard the most legendary ship in the world, Maury Yeston and Peter Stone's stunning musical focuses on their hopes and aspirations. Unaware of the fate that awaits them, the Third Class immigrants dream of a better life in America, the newly-enfranchised Second Class dream of achieving the lifestyles of the rich and famous, and the millionaire Barons of the First Class dream of their mastery lasting forever.

The tour opened at the Mayflower Theatre, Southampton in April 2018, in the same city and same month in which the RMS Titanic set sail, the 106th anniversary.
