Szpilman's music played live by a company of actor-musicians. I cannot think of a better reason to go to the theatre this autumn.

The memoir has stayed with me for years, so a stage version built around Szpilman's own compositions was an instant booking. Thom Southerland's Titanic was stunning, and I expect the same care and craft here.

Excellent

I have read the book and seen the film, but telling this story through music feels completely right. Szpilman survived through his playing, and the idea of actor-musicians carrying that on stage already gives me goosebumps. The first-look clips show a beautiful, intimate staging with the piano right at its heart. It is going to be emotional, so the tissues are packed. Booked for opening week with my dad, who first gave me the memoir.

Why You Should See The Pianist in London

How Long Do You Need at The Pianist in London?

The performance runs approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. Allow around two hours at the theatre in total so you have time to clear security, grab a drink and find your seat without rushing.

Arriving at least 30 minutes before curtain-up is recommended. Latecomers will be asked to wait until a suitable break in the performance, and a suitable break cannot be guaranteed — so if you are eating beforehand at Park Pizza & Bar or around Finsbury Park, give yourself a clear half hour before the show.
