*Hercules* in London has an excellent development team that has been working on the musical for years. The lyrics are by Tony Award-winning David Zippel (*City of Angels*), and the music is by EGOT Award-winning Alan Menken, who has also written the music for numerous Disney films, including *Beauty and the Beast* and *Aladdin*. The musical's book is by Olivier Award nominee Kwame Kwei-Armah (*Elmina's Kitchen*) and Tony Award winner Robert Horn (*Tootsie*). 

The musical is directed by Casey Nicholaw, who is no stranger to directing Disney stage adaptations. He directed the Broadway version of *Aladdin*. Nicholaw has also earned Tony Awards for directing *The Book of Mormon* and for his choreography of *Some Like It Hot*. 

As the [Broadway World review](https://www.broadwayworld.com/germany/article/Review-Disneys-HERCULES-at-Stage-Theatre-Neue-Flora-20240325) said of Nicholaw's staging, "Director Casey Nicholaw created a powerful, family-friendly show with energetic dance moves framed by a massive set design."

## What to watch for 

- Perhaps the most popular song from the musical and film, *Go The Distance*, was nominated for a 1998 Academy Award for Best Original Song.
- Alan Menken wrote the music for *Hercules*, and David Zippel wrote the lyrics; both also wrote the music and lyrics for the original *Hercules* film. 
- Alan Menken is the second most prolific Academy Award winner in the music categories, with eight Oscars.

The beloved 1997 Disney film, *Hercules*, comes to the West End stage in an exciting musical adaptation. Book *Hercules* tickets on London Theatre. 

This musical comedy tells the tale of Hercules, the son of Zeus and Hera, who grows up on Earth after Hades makes him mortal.

*Hercules* in London includes audience-favourite songs from the film, including *Go The Distance*, which was nominated for a 1998 Academy Award for Best Original Song. Other songs included are *From Zero to Hero*, and *I Won’t Say I’m in Love*. 

This show has been years in the making. In 2017, Alan Menken announced he was working on the music for a stage version of *Hercules*. Since then, the production has been created by numerous talented individuals, including Olivier Award nominee Kwame Kwei-Armah and Tony Award winner Robert Horn, who wrote the musical book. 

*Hercules* premiered Off-Broadway in 2019 at Delacorte Theater in Central Park, Manhattan, New York. It then ran at the Paper Mill Playhouse in New Jersey in 2023, and in 2024, the show opened in Hamburg, Germany. 

*Hercules* is a musical directed by Tony Award winner Casey Nicholaw (*Some Like It Hot, The Book of Mormon*). This isn’t Nicholaw’s first time directing a Disney stage adaptation; he also directed the Broadway version of *Aladdin*. 

As the [Broadway World review said](https://www.broadwayworld.com/germany/article/Review-Disneys-HERCULES-at-Stage-Theatre-Neue-Flora-20240325) of the show’s staging in Hamburg, “Director Casey Nicholaw created a powerful, family-friendly show with energetic dance moves framed by a massive set design.”

Disney's Hercules - LON - LT Override

Disney’s hit 1997 film, *Hercules*, comes to the West End in an energetic musical complete with hit songs from the movie like *Go The Distance* and *From Zero to Hero*. 

Ancient Greece. A time of gods, mortals… and Hercules, who doesn't quite belong to either. But if he's not a god, how can he possibly save the world from Hades? It's one thing flexing those pecs, but going from zero to hero requires a different kind of strength. 

Luke Brady will play the lead role *Hercules* in the West End this year.

His stage credits include *As You Like It* (RSC), *SuperYou* (Lyric Theatre), *Assassins* (Chichester Theatre), *The Prince of Egypt* (Dominion Theatre), and *Twelfth Night, The Merchant of Venice*, and *The Taming of the Shrew* all for Shakespeare’s Globe. On screen, Brady appears in *Fresh Meat* and *Murder on the Orient Express.*

The Theatre Royal Drury Lane opened on 10 Oct. 1812. However, this was not the first theatre on this site – there have been four theatres at this location since 1663. 

Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals played in succession from 1947 starting with *Oklahoma!*, *Carousel* in 1950, *South Pacific* in 1951 and *The King and I* closed the series with a three year run ending in 1956. 

The transfer of musicals from Broadway continued in 1958 with Lerner and Loewe’s *My Fair Lady*, starring Julie Andrews and Rex Harrison. The writing duo followed this up in 1964 with their next musical, *Camelot*.

Another three-year tPrize-winningransfer danced its way into Drury Lane in July 1976 - the Pulitzer Prize winning *A Chorus Line* came to London with its original Broadway cast and played for almost three years. Stephen Sondheim’s *Sweeney Todd – The Demon Barber of Fleet Street* also made the move across the pond in 1980.

It was the arrival of the tap-dance heavy *42nd Street* in 1984 that saw the theatre packed and reignited the flame for long-running shows. The show played for five years, before *Miss Saigon* moved in and played over 4,000 performances over a decade. 

Recent musicals at Theatre Royal Drury Lane include *[Charlie and the Chocolate Factory](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/show/charlie-and-the-chocolate-factory)* and an acclaimed revival of *[42nd Street](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/show/42nd-street)*. After two years of refurbishment, the Theatre Royal Drury Lane reopened in 2021 with the West End premiere of *[Frozen](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/show/frozen)*.

## Theatre Royal Drury Lane Seating Information

The auditorium has four levels – Stalls, Royal Circle, Grand Circle and Balcony. 

The Stalls do offer great views of the stage and the legroom is very good.

In the Royal Circle, the view of the stage is affected from Row H onwards by the overhang of the Grand Circle. The seats do feel quite set back from the stage, but the view is generally very good.

The Upper Circle feels relatively close to the stage for its height and views from this level of the theatre are surprisingly good.

The Balcony is set very high up and although a strong rake helps to give good sightlines to the stage many people have suffered from vertigo at this level.

## Where is *Frozen* in London?

*Frozen* is at Theatre Royal Drury Lane in London. Theatre Royal Drury Lane is located in Covent Garden. It's close to West End theatres including the Fortune Theatre and the Novello Theatre.
