Where in Bradford is the show performed?
The musical is performed at the Alhambra Theatre in Bradford city centre, a large professional venue known for hosting major touring shows with excellent views from most areas of the auditorium.
What is The Choir of Man about?
The Choir of Man is set in an on-stage pub called The Jungle, described as the best pub in the world, where nine ordinary guys form a pub choir and share their lives through songs and spoken word. The story celebrates friendship, community, and men supporting each other, mixing big laughs with moving moments about loneliness, mental health, and belonging.
How long does the show last in Bradford?
The show typically runs for around 90 minutes to just over 2 hours depending on the production, with the touring version often listed at about 2 hours including an interval. It is long enough to feel like a full night out but still finishes in good time for public transport or driving home.
What is the age guidance for this production?
The age guidance for The Choir of Man is generally from about 6–10 years and over, with the Bradford listings suggesting it is suitable for families. There is a realistic pub setting with on-stage alcohol and some adult themes, but no strong swearing or explicit content, so it can work well for older children and teenagers with an accompanying adult.
Has The Choir of Man won or been nominated for any awards?
The Choir of Man has been nominated for an Olivier Award for Best Entertainment or Comedy Play in London’s West End, marking it out as a critically acclaimed hit. It has also won festival awards such as Best Music and Pick of the Fringe at Adelaide Fringe, and has played sold-out seasons in venues around the world.
What kind of music will I hear during the show?
The show features live covers of famous songs by artists including Queen, Luther Vandross, Sia, Paul Simon, Adele, Guns N’ Roses, Avicii, and Katy Perry. The nine performers sing in tight harmonies, play instruments on stage, and blend rock anthems, ballads, folk tunes, choral numbers, and musical theatre-style arrangements into one big pub gig.
Who is in the cast for the Bradford dates?
The 2026 UK and Ireland tour cast in Bradford features Gustav Melbardis as Maestro, Oluwalonimi (Nimi) Owoyemi as Poet, Levi Tyrell Johnson as Hard Man, Ben Mabberley as Joker, Rob Godfrey as Beast, Jack Skelton as Handyman, Joshua Lloyd as Barman, Sam Walter as Romantic, and Aaron Pottenger as Bore, supported by a team of swings.
Is there any special local involvement during the Bradford run?
Yes, the producers have created the Jungle Choir Community Project, which invites a local choir in each touring city to join the company on opening night. In Bradford, a local choir will take part in the final moments of the show, adding an extra burst of community spirit and local voices to the performance.
Is there audience interaction during the performance?
The Choir of Man has a relaxed, interactive feel, with the cast often talking directly to the audience and sometimes coming into the stalls. A small number of audience members are usually invited onto the stage to sit at the working bar and share a drink, helping the evening feel like a real visit to a friendly neighbourhood pub.
Do I need to know the story or songs before going?
You do not need to know anything in advance to enjoy The Choir of Man, as the plot is simple and clearly told through monologues and music. Even if you do not recognise every song, the performances, humour, and emotional storylines make it easy to follow and very enjoyable for first-time visitors.
How can I get cheap tickets for The Choir of Man in Bradford?
To find cheaper tickets, look first at the earlier midweek performances from Tuesday to Thursday, which are often lower priced than Friday and Saturday evenings, and choose seats further back or higher up rather than premium front stalls. Book as early as possible for the widest choice of lower-priced seats, check for concessions for students, under 26s, seniors, families, or local residents, and consider going as a group to see if group booking discounts can bring down the price per ticket.
