Top Hat in London

Top Hat – 1930s glamour brought to vibrant life on stage

We’re delighted to introduce Top Hat, a musical extravaganza packed with glamour and glitz, based on the famous Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers movie with dreamy music by Irving Berlin.

Top Hat – The story

Whether or not you’ve seen the film, you’ll fall head over heels with this luscious stage production of the timeless love story. American dancer Jerry Travers, originally played by Astaire, works in London. Practising a new dance routine late at night, he wakes Dale Tremont, originally played by Ginger Rogers. When she complains about the noise, romance blossoms and it’s love at first sight. But will they ever get together, or will misunderstandings ruin their relationship before it starts?

Feisty Dale Tremont and nimble-footed tap dancer Jerry Travers eventually end up in Venice, the most romantic city on earth, where Jerry finds he has a rival for Dale’s affections. Thankfully the butler, Bates, is there to smooth the path of true love.

Top Hat – A classic ‘feel good’ show

Top Hat the movie was a classic feel good movie. And the stage version has the same charm, with the story brought to life before your eyes set to a suite of stunning tunes by Irving Berlin. The dance routines are simply spectacular and rave reviews mean it’s looking like a smash West End hit the making.

Top Hat the musical is a wonderful feast of nostalgia and Hollywood glamour. If you’re one of the many millions of us who are hooked on Strictly Ballroom, this’ll be right up your street. The choreographer Bill Deamer, who was also involved in Love Never Dies and So You Think You Can Dance, has overseen the original 1930s dance routines to deliver an authentic and faithful representation of one of the world’s favourite old-time dance classics. As the critics say, it can’t put a foot wrong.

Top Hat songs

The Top Hat movie included just five tunes by Irving Berlin: Isn’t This A Lovely Day, Cheek To Cheek, No Strings, Piccolino and Top Hat itself, the show’s signature tune. But the stage show’s production team, led by director Matthew White and producer Kenny Wax, has also included two more fantastic period songs for the West End version: Let’s Face The Music And Dance and I’m Putting All My Eggs In One Basket.

Top Hat top class

Just go and enjoy it. Absorb yourself in the superb music, brilliant dancing and slick movement. The shifts in geographical location were well achieved. The second act particularly reminded me of the old Whitehall farces of Brian Rix.

an entertaining evening

an old favourite of mine, marred only by the (for me) over effective miking which pained my ears even in Row K of the Dress circle. Not quite as deafening as Thriller, but too many decibels for me - and i am over 70 and slightly deaf anyway.
