Bristol Hippodrome's Anything Goes call it "a wonderful tonic in a dark time"

Bristol Bristol Hippodrome Hippodrome Bonnie Langford Kerry Ellis Denis Lawson

After a tough few years, nothing feels better than sitting among people and experiencing joy and laughter that we once may have taken for granted. And what better place to do so than the Hippodrome?

Bristol's iconic theatre has seen a number of incredible shows since casts have been back on stage, from Beauty and the Beast to the Lion King and coming this April is another iconic hit as Bristol welcomes the multi-Tony winning music 'Anything Goes'. The ‘show of the year’ is welcoming a new cast to put on another epic performance following its sold out run at the Barbican in summer 2021.

The new cast includes: WhatOnStage Award Winner Kerry Ellis, well-known and loved for her incredible performances in Wicked and We Will Rock You as Reno Sweeney and Olivier Award Winner Denis Lawson as Moonface Martin. Joining them on board is Olivier Award Winner Simon Callow as Elisha Whitney and Musical Theatre Royalty Bonnie Langford as Evangeline Harcourt.
