National Lottery`s Big Night of Musicals broadcast details

The show will be aired on BBC One on Saturday 27th January at 7:50 pm

Hosted once again by comedian Jason Manford, this incredible night of entertainment highlights everything that’s great about big stage musicals. This time around there were jaw-dropping performances from shows including Hamilton, Les Misérables and The Phantom of the Opera, as well as Everybody’s Talking About Jamie (pictured), A Chorus Line, Moulin Rouge! The Musical, GREASE – UK and Ireland tour, Hadestown and Guys & Dolls.

At the 2024 The National Lottery’s Big Night of Musicals, Jason Manford was joined on stage by a true West End legend: Beverley Knight (pictured with Jason Manford). The star of The Bodyguard, Cats, Memphis, Sylvia and Sister Act performed one of her classic numbers and helped surprise some National Lottery heroes.

Beverley Knight, who also performed at The National Lottery’s Big Night of Musicals in 2022, said: “It’s great to be...part of this incredible show. The support National Lottery players make to the theatre industry is crucial to the performers and people – at large and small venues – who help make a night at the theatre so special.”

The show will be aired on BBC One on Saturday 27th January 2024 from 7:50pm to 9:20pm. It will also be broadcast on Radio 2 on Sunday 28th January 2024 and will be available after that on BBC Sounds and BBC iPlayer.
