The Outsiders Musical Tickets

Based on the powerful, heartbreaking 1967 novel by S.E. Hinton, this coming of age story follows a group of troubled young men in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Fourteen-year-old Ponyboy Curtis lives with his older brothers Darrel and Sodapop, all of them belonging to a gang called the Greasers. The Greasers are poor, downtrodden and spurned by society, and prone to violence, but fiercely loyal to each other. When a clash with their rival gang, the Socs, ends in tragedy, Ponyboy and his best friend Johnny end up on the run, confronting harsh truths about the world they live in and the kind of men they want to be.

This moving novel about friendship and overcoming the hand you’re dealt, based on Hinton’s own experiences, has inspired a 1983 cult classic film adaptation starring Tom Cruise and Patrick Swayze, and a Broadway musical that premiered in 2024. Now UK audiences will have a chance to experience the story that’s as relevant and stirring today as it was almost sixty years ago. Get ready to laugh and cry with an unforgettable, colourful cast of characters who’ll steal your heart, to the tune of an original soundtrack that captures the grittiness of 1960s Oklahoma.

If you loved the novel or the film, or even if you’re new to this extraordinary story, this heartrending musical is one that’ll stay with you long after you’ve left the theatre.
