Following award-winning, sell-out London and Edinburgh seasons, and prior to appearing off-Broadway, the acclaimed cabaret musical that explores how it’s OK to not be OK comes to Wilton’s for two nights only.

Sally’s a happy person. She doesn’t let little things get her down and almost never cries. But she’s got an illness. It makes her feel like she isn’t the person she wants to be, but she doesn’t want anyone to know about it.

Seabright Productions will be filming the shows it is producing at Wilton's Music Hall in June for later streaming release. As such you may notice camera equipment in the stalls when you attend the show, and a number of seats will be held off sale so our capacity is accordingly reduced. We are working to ensure that patrons will not be inconvenienced by the filming in any way, but please feel free to contact us on info@wiltons.org.uk with any queries in advance or on the night of the show.
Wilton's has been granted the use of Society Of London Theatre & UK Theatre's 'See It Safely' mark. The mark certifies that we are complying with the latest Government and industry COVID-19 guidelines, to ensure the safety of our staff and audiences.
