Live indoor shows may still be off the agenda but Southampton’s Mayflower Theatre will be screening recordings of hit musicals in their venue throughout September.

Created with Stage2View, audiences will be able to watch productions such as The King and I, An American in Paris, 42nd Street, Kinky Boots, The SpongeBob Musical: Live on Stage! and The Wind in the Willows.

Mayflower Theatre Chief Executive, Michael Ockwell said: "I am delighted to be able to bring audiences back into our venue for this film series, what better way to enjoy filmed versions of great musicals than to sit in our fabulous auditorium. Whilst we are unable to present our usual offering to full audiences, this innovative use of our space for musical films takes us back to our heritage with our venue being used for both live shows and films.

"With a venue of our size, the socially distanced audience can safely enjoy a unique experience."
