High Society UK Tour

The Alexandra Theatre, Birmingham
Selected dates: 6 October to 14 November 2026

Sobre o espetáculo

Explore High Society’s 2026 UK tour: Cole Porter songs, the story, production artwork and selected Bromley and Eastbourne dates.

A society wedding becomes complicated by former lovers, new attractions and a reporter looking for a scandal. High Society turns that romantic confusion into a musical built around Cole Porter’s songs and the world of wealthy socialite Tracy Lord.

Songs and creative team

The score includes True Love, I Love Paris, Well, Did You Evah! and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? The musical has a book by Arthur Kopit, additional lyrics by Susan Birkenhead and is based on Philip Barry’s The Philadelphia Story. This production is directed by Rachel Kavanaugh with choreography by Anthony Van Laast.

Selected autumn performances

Official listings show Churchill Theatre, Bromley, from 6 to 10 October 2026 and Congress Theatre, Eastbourne, from 10 to 14 November 2026. Both venue pages advertise Helen George as Tracy Lord. Check the chosen performance for casting and availability, as the company can change during a tour.
