The Great British Bake Off musical to open in West End in February 2023

The Great British Bake Off musical is to run in the West End in 2023!

Endorsed and created in association with the producers of the TV show, the new musical made its premiere at Cheltenham’s Everyman Theatre this summer.

It features an original score by Jake Brunger and Pippa Cleary (The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole) with direction by Rachel Kavanaugh.

The show will transfer to the West End, running at the Noël Coward Theatre from 25 February to 13 May 2023 with tickets on sale now here.

Take eight amateur bakers, add two presenters, two iconic judges, the most delicious original score, and the result is the ultimate showstopper!

Follow the trials and tribulations of our bakers, all with their own stories to tell and as unique from one another as their marvellous baked creations. Find out who will triumph as Star Baker, and who will fall foul of a soggy bottom. Expect heart-warming characters, ounces of laughter and mouth watering music in this brand-new and original British musical, suitable for the whole family.
