Considered to be the most prestigious awards ceremony in London's theatre calendar, the Olivier Awards celebrate exceptional productions which have been staged in the West End and affiliate theatres. We've gone through the archives of ceremonies broadcast to present our favourite live musical performances over the years.

There's special moments that have gone down in Olivier history, as well as performances from a variety of West End musicals still open in London today, with casts and creative teams coming together.

Sister Act

Beverley Knight performed "Raise Your Voice" at the 2023 Olivier Awards. The actress won her first Olivier that year for playing Emmeline Pankhurst in Sylvia. Knight will reprise the role in Sister Act at the Dominion Theatre in 2024.

Oklahoma!

The Olivier-winning musical revival took to the Royal Albert Hall, with the Oklahoma! cast performing a mashup of the title song and "I Cain't Say No." Oklahoma! continues at the Wyndham's Theatre through September 2023.

The Book of Mormon

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Book of Mormon in the West End, the company performed "Hello!" at the Royal Albert Hall. Coincidentally, the original The Book of Mormon cast member, Andrew Rannells, was nominated for his first Olivier in the same year — for Tammy Faye.

Mamma Mia!

Mamma Mia! celebrated its 15th birthday with a special performance of the show's greatest hits at the 2014 Olivier Awards. They're joined by ABBA members Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Anderson on stage for a one-off performance, getting the audience on their feet with a medley including "Thank You for the Music", "Dancing Queen" and "Mamma Mia!". Last year, the show hit its 20th anniversary milestone at the Novello Theatre.
