Our House didn't just win the Olivier Award for Best New Musical, it was an instant smash hit, winning the hearts of London's West End. A touching tale of life and love, heartbreak and comedy, right and wrong, Our House is the irresistibly brilliant musical bursting with non-stop classic hits from everyone's favourite 80s pop group, Madness.
Sixteen today, in love for the first time - the world is really changing for the yound Joe Casey. But on this faithful night he doesn't realise quite how much. Our House features more than 20 timeless songs including 'My Girl', 'Wings Of A Dove', 'Bagg Trousers', 'House of Fun', 'Driving In My Car' and of course the joyous classic 'It Must Be Love'.
This hilarious, touchingly romantic and emotionally charged musical is written by Tim Forth (Calendar Girls, Neville's Island) and directed byy Matthew Warchus (Art, The Lord of the Rings, Boeing Boeing) with high-octane choreography by Peter Darling (Billy Elliot)
