Frequently Asked Questions

What is Burlesque The Musical about

Burlesque The Musical follows Ali, an aspiring singer who leaves her small hometown for New York to search for her mother and discovers a struggling burlesque lounge hidden beneath the city lights. Drawn into this secret club, she finds a new family, her true voice and the courage to fight off ruthless developers trying to close the venue.

When is Burlesque The Musical in Birmingham

The musical runs at The Alexandra in Birmingham from Tuesday 6 October to Saturday 17 October 2026. Performances take place Tuesday to Saturday each week, with evening shows throughout and matinees on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Where is The Alexandra and how do I get there

The Alexandra Theatre is on Suffolk Queensway in Birmingham city centre, postcode B5 4DS. It is a short walk from Birmingham New Street station, close to Moor Street and Snow Hill, and well served by buses and nearby car parks, so you can arrive easily by train, tram, bus or car.

)

Has Burlesque won any awards

The 2010 Burlesque film has been widely recognised for its music, including a Golden Globe win for Diane Warren’s You Haven’t Seen the Last of Me and multiple nominations for songs such as Bound to You and for its soundtrack. These awards underpin the stage adaptation, which builds on the film’s acclaimed music with new arrangements and additional songs for live performance.

Is Burlesque The Musical suitable for children

The Birmingham production carries an age guidance of 12 and over due to sensual themes, suggestive choreography, nightclub settings, some strong language and effects such as strobe lighting, smoke and haze. There is no under‑5s admission, so families should consider whether younger children will be comfortable with the more adult, late‑night club atmosphere before booking.

Who will enjoy Burlesque The Musical in Birmingham

This musical is ideal for adults and older teens who enjoy glamorous costumes, bold choreography and big pop vocals. It is especially popular for group nights out, hen parties and celebrations where everyone is happy with flirty humour, LGBTQ‑inclusive characters and a bold, high‑energy night at the theatre.

How can I get cheap tickets for Burlesque The Musical in Birmingham

To find cheaper tickets, look first at midweek performances rather than prime Friday and Saturday evenings, as off‑peak dates often sit in lower price bands. Choosing seats a little further from the stage or higher up in the circle or upper levels usually reduces the price while still providing a good overall view of the production.

What are smart strategies to save money on tickets

Book as early as possible so you can choose from the full price range before the best‑value seats sell out or move up a tier. Check for ATG+ presale windows, group discounts and midweek deals, and compare options on the MusicalsAndTickets website with official box office prices so you can balance ticket cost, seat position and booking fees for the best overall deal.

Where should I look for showtimes and performance schedule

At The Alexandra, evening performances are scheduled Tuesday to Saturday at 19:30, with matinees on Wednesday and Saturday at 14:30. You can confirm exact dates and start times for 6–17 October 2026 on the touring schedules and then cross‑check them with the event page for Burlesque The Musical on MusicalsAndTickets before choosing your performance.

Any tips to make the most of my night at The Alexandra

Arrive in Birmingham city centre early so you have time to enjoy nearby bars or restaurants around Suffolk Queensway and New Street and still reach your seat without rushing. When booking, decide whether you prefer the immersive energy of the stalls or the wider perspective from the circle, then match that choice to your budget so you get a great experience at a price that feels comfortable.
