Today Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre has confirmed their plans for 2021, which includes productions that were delayed from last year due to the pandemic.

The popular London venue, which still managed to welcome audiences of 30,000 in 2020 despite the restrictions on their numbers, will stage an extended season this year. The new season will open in June with a 50% reduction in seating capacity. 

Launching the season on 17 June will be Romeo and Juliet directed by Kimberely Sykes. It will be shown until 24 July, with casting to be announced. Next up is a revival of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Carousel (31 July to 25 September) by artistic director Timothy Sheader. 

Rounding off the Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre main season is Dragons and Mythical Beasts, suitable for ages 3+, which will open on 13 August and run until 5 September.

In addition to the main season, the theatre will present a co-production with Unicorn Theatre of Anansi the Spider, directed by Justin Audibert , which will play daytime performances on the theatre's lawn from 7 - 24 July.

There will also be comedy gigs taking place from Aisling Bea, Jimmy Carr, and Luisa Omielan and another all-star comedy fundraiser in support of The Trussell Trust.
