Paddington The Musical received 7 coveted Olivier Awards at the 2026 ceremony, including Best New Musical, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress and Best Director. This West End hit has been sold-out since its first preview, and now sets its sights on a Broadway production in 2027.

When a small, lost bear from Peru arrives in London in search of a new home, a chance encounter with the Brown family leads him to the wonderful world of Windsor Gardens.

But London isn’t all afternoon teas and friendly faces – and even the happiest families have their cracks beneath the surface. So when a mysterious and vengeful villain sets her sights on Paddington, the Browns embark on a thrilling rescue mission, realising they need this special bear as much as he needs them.

Packed with show-stopping songs, dazzling choreography, mishaps and mayhem at every turn – and of course, marmalade sandwiches – Paddington the Musical is based on the iconic characters from Michael Bond’s books, with a story inspired by the award-winning 2014 film.

Directed by Luke Sheppard, with original music and lyrics by Tom Fletcher, and book by Olivier Award-winner Jessica Swale, Paddington the Musical is now playing to full houses at the Savoy Theatre.
