Burlesque The Musical UK tour has been announced
The tour will launch on 16th February at the Edinburgh Playhouse
Burlesque the Musical is set to dazzle audiences as it embarks on a major UK tour this February, bringing glamour, heart, and high energy choreography to theatres nationwide. Inspired by the iconic 2010 film, the stage adaptation expands the story with new music, spectacular production design, and a bold celebration of self expression.
The musical follows Ali, a small town dreamer who stumbles into an underground burlesque lounge and discovers a chosen family that empowers her to find her voice. Audiences can expect powerhouse vocals, seductive dance numbers, and a soundtrack that blends pop, soul, and classic showgirl flair.
This UK tour promises lavish costumes, dynamic staging, and an inclusive message that champions individuality and resilience. Creative teams have reimagined the world of Burlesque for the stage, ensuring it feels fresh while retaining the attitude fans love. Each venue will be transformed into a shimmering cabaret space, inviting audiences into the story rather than simply presenting it.
Launching in February, the tour will visit major cities across England, Scotland, and Wales, making the show accessible to a wide range of theatre goers. Burlesque the Musical is poised to be one of the most talked about touring productions of the year, offering escapism, empowerment, and unapologetic spectacle in equal measure for audiences.
