Where in Richmond is the show performed?

The show is performed at Richmond Theatre in Surrey, an historic venue in the town centre that regularly hosts major touring productions.

What is The Choir of Man about?

The Choir of Man is set in a traditional pub called The Jungle, known as the “best pub in the world”, where nine regulars form a pub choir and share their lives through songs and spoken-word monologues. It is an uplifting celebration of community, friendship, and positive masculinity, mixing big laughs with moving stories about love, loneliness, and men’s mental health.

How long does the show last in Richmond?

The touring production has a running time of about 2 hours 5 minutes including a 20-minute interval, as listed for the 2026 UK tour. This makes it a standard-length evening show that still finishes in good time for trains, buses, or driving home.

What is the age guidance for this production?

The tour uses an age guidance of 10+, reflecting the pub setting, on-stage alcohol use, and some adult themes but no swearing. Other guides describe it as suitable from around 6+ with parental discretion, especially for older children and teenagers comfortable with a lively, gig-style atmosphere.

Has The Choir of Man won or been nominated for any awards?

The Choir of Man is an Olivier Award–nominated show in the Best Entertainment or Comedy Play category, recognising its success in the West End. It has also won festival awards such as Best Music and Pick of the Fringe at the Adelaide Fringe and gone on to become a worldwide smash hit.

What kind of music will I hear?

The show features reinventions of folk, pop, Broadway, and rock chart-toppers from artists including Guns N’ Roses, Fun., Adele, Avicii, Paul Simon, Sia, and more. A cast of nine multi-talented guys perform rich harmonies, sing-alongs, tap dance, and live band arrangements that feel like a mix of a gig, a musical, and a lock-in.

What is the atmosphere like at Richmond Theatre for this show?

Richmond Theatre’s traditional auditorium and raked seating suit The Choir of Man’s feel-good, pub-style staging, helping the energy reach all levels. Combined with the working bar on stage and upbeat soundtrack, it feels more like a party or concert than a formal night at the theatre.

Is there audience interaction during the performance?

Yes, The Choir of Man is known for its interactive, informal style, with the cast often chatting to the audience, encouraging clapping and singing along, and sometimes moving through the aisles. A limited number of audience members are usually invited onto the stage to sit at the bar and may even be served a free pint, adding to the feeling that you are part of the pub.

Do I need to know the story or songs before going?

You do not need any prior knowledge to enjoy The Choir of Man, as the story is simple and clearly told through short monologues and songs. Even if you do not recognise every track, the mix of familiar hits, strong vocals, and emotional storytelling makes the show easy to follow and very accessible.

How can I get cheap tickets for The Choir of Man in Richmond?

To find cheaper tickets, start with the earlier performances in the week and look at the starting prices listed from around £15 at Richmond Theatre. Book as early as possible for the best choice of lower-priced seats, choose seats further back or higher up instead of premium front stalls, and watch for occasional discounts or promotions tied to off-peak dates.

Are there last-minute or same-day ticket deals, and which seats offer the best value?

Last-minute or same-day deals can appear if there are unsold seats, especially for quieter midweek performances, so being flexible about your seat location can help you find a bargain. For good value, look at central seats further back in the stalls or front-of-circle seats, and consider side or slightly restricted-view seats that are cheaper but still give a strong view and lively atmosphere.
