West End Calling presents the Grand Final!

Young performers from all over the UK have gone through three rounds to earn a place in the final here at the Charing Cross Theatre. After auditioning in front of a panel of West End stars, contestants went on to perform in the regional heats which were held in London, Manchester, Cardiff, Birmingham, Norwich and Edinburgh. If they were successful here, they then had to wow our judges at the Semi-Finals held in London, Manchester and Belfast to secure their place in the Grand Final.

Each contestant will perform a song from a musical to our live audience as well as a panel made up of West End stars! It will be up to the panel to decide who they will crown as the winner of this year's competition!

Our judging panel consists of Grace Mouat (& Juliet, Six, Be More Chill), Laura Pick (Wicked), Cleve September (In The Heights, Hamilton), Christine Bennington (Heathers, Bat Out Of Hell) and Natalie May Paris (Six).

The final is split into two parts - the Junior Final (4.00pm) and the Senior Final (7.00pm).

Come along and enjoy a day of musical theatre madness in the heart of the West End!

A MIRRORED MONET

The man behind the masterpiece.

Paris, 1916. The painter Claude Monet struggles to complete the commission that will define his legacy: The Water Lilies — a project on which his survival depends, with food and essential supplies at stake as the First World War encroaches. Plagued by creative block, he retreats into memory, revisiting his early artist days with contemporaries Renoir and Manet, and his muse, Camille Doncieux.

Inspired by letters and diaries from Monet and his peers, A Mirrored Monet immerses audiences in the cafés, studios, and salons of Belle Époque Paris, with music and projections bringing the era vividly to life.

This dramatic new musical by composer/lyricist/dramatist Carmel Owen stars Jeff Shankley (Starlight Express, Cats) as Monet and Dean John-Wilson (Your Lie in April: The Musical, The King and I) as Young Monet.
