Hercules will be heading to Theatre Royal Drury Lane in 2025.

Groups can book their tickets for certain Monday - Friday performance from 1st September 2025, with special rates available from nine or more people. Groups of 20 or more save even more on tickets. The show officially opens on 24th June 2025.

Inspired by the 1997 Disney animated film, the show is directed and choreographed by Casey Nicholaw (Book of Mormon, Aladdin) and will include the hit single Go The Distance.

Alan Menken, who composed the music for the animation and this production, said: “Hercules was thrilling when I was first working on it in the mid-90s and has only grown more exciting and amazing with each passing adaptation.

“The new songs David Zippel and I have added for our upcoming production in London, have deepened the emotional impact and further developed the stylistic panache.

“The humor and overall message of the script by Robert Horn and Kwame Kwei-Armah have brought our story to wonderful new heights and supercharged the underlying message of this story.

“And, when it comes to bringing all of this to life on stage, there’s no one even close to Casey Nicholaw in creating theatrical magic. I can’t wait for audiences to experience our new Hercules!”

Disney Theatrical Group has announced Luke Brady in the title role, who appeared in The Prince of Egypt at the Dominion Theatre. 

About the show

Ancient Greece. A time of gods, mortals… and Hercules, who doesn’t quite belong to either. But if he’s not a god, how can he possibly save the world from Hades? It’s one thing flexing those pecs, but going from zero to hero requires a different kind of strength.

Get ready for a wise-cracking, column-shaking, underworld-rocking ride of adventure, self-discovery and love - in tunics.
