TUTU - West End History , Info & More

Peacock Theatre
Portugal St, Holborn London

Join TUTU on a hilarious journey where incredible dance skills and inventive parody intertwine seamlessly. Choreographed by Philippe Lafeuille, this playful new perspective shatters stereotypes and makes dance accessible to all.



Featuring an all-male cast of six dancers decked out in ever-changing flamboyant costumes, TUTU pays homage to the dance world that can sometimes take itself a little too seriously. Yes, a bare-chested tutu-clad man can perform a stunningly graceful pointe solo!



This comedic dance show lovingly mocks the classic tutu, traditionally only worn by women, by introducing the unique TUTU trousers. The company skilfully parodies more than 40 characters, becoming icons of classical ballet, contemporary dance, and rhythmic or acrobatic dance. Audiences are taken on a hilarious whirlwind ride as they witness a hip-hop version of Swan Lake, a clumsy take on Dirty Dancing, and a dainty version of The Haka.



Celebrating its 10th anniversary on tour, TUTU continues to delight audiences around the world!

Photo Coverage: Inside Steve Tyrell's Opening Night at Cafe Carlyle
by Stephen Sorokoff - Dec 2, 2015


Last night Cafe Carlyle welcomed back GRAMMY Award-winner Steve Tyrell for a four-week engagement and BroadwayWorld was there for opening night. The renowned singer returns with a new show, One More For The Road, featuring a full set of Sinatra favorites in celebration of Ol' Blue Eyes' 100th birthday. It's a fitting tribute since it was actually a Sinatra song, 'The Way You Look Tonight,' that Tyrell sang in the 1991 movie, Father of the Bride, which launched his career as a singer. Years later, the Sinatra family handpicked Tyrell to perform 'Fly Me To The Moon' at the Hollywood Bowl, with Quincy Jones conducting the orchestra, when the Chairman was inducted into their Hall of Fame in 2005. Tyrell's ties to the Sinatra family remain tight as he was once again asked to host a three-hour celebration on Siriusly Sinatra on Frank's actual birthday, December 12. He will be live from Patsy's for Sirius XM radio, just as he did in 2014.
