Due to the current suspension of performances at Dartford’s Orchard Theatre due to RAAC, the world premiere tour of Treason will now see out its final performances at the London Palladium, performing for two nights on the 21 & 22 November.

Producers said: “We are so grateful to LW theatres for hosting our Plot for these performances. Having enjoyed producing sell out and award nominated concerts of Death Note, Chess, Kinky Boots and of course, Treason at the Palladium and Theatre Royal Drury Lane respectively, we can’t wait for the fully staged world premiere tour to now end at the Palladium.”

“We were heartbroken to learn of the RAAC situation at The Orchard Theatre, particularly after their stunning renovation. We are thrilled that they are able to recommence performances just in time for some Christmas joy with their pantomime and more into 2024.”

At the end of this month, the plotters will begin their tour and travel to the Festival Theatre, Edinburgh, Sheffield Lyceum, London’s Alexandra Palace, and end at The London Palladium.

A historic tale of division, religious persecution, and brutality, ending in an ambitious yet fateful plot to bring down both the monarchy and the government, Treason the Musical is set to blow you away with stunning original folk and pop songs. This one-of-a-kind show tells one of the most intriguing tales in Britain’s history as it’s never been seen before.

Following on from the Theatre Royal Drury Lane concerts, joining the writing team of Treason are Charli Eglinton (Book) and Debris Stevenson (additional lyrics & additional material).
