Whether it is tomorrow, today, or yesterday, it is time to see the enduring love story of *The Time Traveller’s Wife*, a new musical adaptation making its West End debut. Book *The Time Traveller’s Wife* tickets on London Theatre now.

Based on Audrey Niffenegger's bestselling 2003 novel of the same name, this captivating musical weaves an enchanting narrative of love. *The Time Traveller’s Wife* tells the extraordinary story of Henry, a man with a genetic disorder that propels him into spontaneous time travel, and his mesmerising journey to be with his soulmate, Clare, through the ages.

Despite the everlasting love between the couple, time incessantly tears them apart. This unique storyline illustrates the immense challenges in relationships and powerfully showcases how true love can stand the test of time. 

The creative team behind *Ghost: The Musical* and *Back to the Future: The Musical* reunite to bring this compelling story to the Apollo Theatre following its world premiere at the Chester Playhouse. David Hunter and Joanna Woodward play Henry and Clare, reprising their roles from Chester.

## Who wrote *The Time Traveller's Wife*?

Audrey Niffenegger wrote the original *The Time Traveller's Wife* novel. It was her debut book, and 25 literary publishers rejected it before one finally picked it up.

The mesmerizing stage production of *The Time Traveller's Wife* in the West End features an original score by global superstar Joss Stone and multi-Grammy Award winner Dave Stewart. The pair are renowned for collaborating with Mick Jagger, A.R. Rahman, and Damian Marley in the acclaimed supergroup SuperHeavy, and Stewart is one half of Eurythmics alongside Annie Lennox.

Now, they beautifully bring to life the unconventional tale at the heart of this production alongside Lauren Gunderson, the most produced playwright in the U.S. in two separate years, who now adapts *The Time Traveller’s Wife* for the West End.

Tickets to *The Time Traveller’s Wife* in London are available now. Book *The Time Traveller’s Wife* tickets on London Theatre today. 

The Time Travellers Wife: The Musical - LON - LondonTheatre

Henry and Clare’s love story is like no other. They fall in love, they marry, they fight. But nothing is as it seems in this relationship. Joss Stone co-writes original music and lyrics for *The Time Traveller's Wife: The Musical.* Set your clocks for *The Time Traveller's Wife: The Musical* tickets on London Theatre today.


Although a time-travelling husband sounds like a science fiction plot, the show is a romance first and foremost. *The Time Traveller’s Wife* musical takes the London stage to celebrate the deep complexities any relationship has and how unconditional devotion can overpower them.

Niffenegger’s maternal grandparents inspired this premise. When her grandfather died young, her grandmother lived for another three decades without ever getting remarried. Niffenegger wanted to relay how infinite love is tested when something out of the couple’s control happens. 

Since being published in 2003, The Time Traveller’s Wife novel has sold over 8 million copies worldwide. Twenty-five literary agents originally rejected the hugely successful novel, yet it’s now one of the most well-known romance stories of this century. 

## What to Watch For

- It took Niffenegger almost five years to write this bestseller. In 1997, the author, who was also an illustrator at the time, thought of the phrase “time traveller’s wife.” She began questioning how a relationship involving a time traveller would work, if the wife would be forever lonely, and how they would meet. She decided this was a perfect book plot — and she was right!
- A sequel to the novel, titled *The Other Husband*, has been in the works for several years. It is expected imminently; the exact date is unknown.
- The successful release of the swoon-worthy book inspired a film of the same name. Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams star as Henry and Clare, with Robert Schwentke directing. Theo James and Rose Leslie later starred in a 2022 TV miniseries adaptation.
- The 2009 film originally tapped Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston to play the lead roles. The real-life former couple got divorced prior to filming, so they were recast, but Pitt became an executive producer of the film.
- Dave Stewart co-wrote the score for *Ghost: The Musical*, but this is the first time he and Joss Stone collaborated on a musical. The pair previously worked together to form the one-off supergroup SuperHeavy with Mick Jagger, Damian Marley, and AR Rahman.

The Apollo Theatre opened on 21 Feb. 1901. The theatre is named after the Greek god of the arts, and was built to house musical theatre productions.

The late 20th-century saw many plays at the Apollo Theatre, including *Separate Tables* starring John Mills, *Mrs Klein* starring [Zoe Wanamaker](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/actor-profile/zoe-wanamaker), and *A Madhouse in God* starring [Vanessa Redgrave](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/actor-profile/vanessa-redgrave).

During a performance of the Olivier Award winning play [*The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time*](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/show/the-curious-incident-of-the-dog-in-the-night-time) on 19 Dec. 2013, a large section of the ceiling collapsed, potentially caused by the heavy rain London had experienced that week, and 88 people were injured. 

Recent shows at the Apollo Theatre include *Jerusalem* starring Mark Rylance, and the West End premiere of *Everybody's Talking About Jamie.*

## Apollo Theatre Seating Information

The auditorium has three levels – Stalls, Dress Circle and Grand Circle. The Stalls seats offer excellent views of the stage. Views in the outer seats are hindered by the overhang of the Dress Circle.

The Dress Circle seats may offer little legroom and little raking in the seating. The last two rows of seats sit on a higher level and offer better views than those in front.

The Grand Circle has a shallow ranke. The last two rows of seats are also built up higher.
