Chichester Festival Theatre is one of England’s most striking theatres – the perfect stage for epic drama and musicals. Its smaller Minerva stage premieres new work and intimate revivals. Set in beautiful parkland, at the heart of a cathedral city between the South Downs and the sea, CFT creates unforgettable experiences and exceptional stories that inspire, delight, and bring people together – on and off the stage. It connects inventive artists with imaginative audiences and makes productions for the West End and world stages, with the belief that theatre is for everyone.
Countless productions started life at Chichester before transferring to the West End or touring, including Steven Moffat’s The Unfriend, South Pacific; Caroline, Or Change (also on Broadway); Ian McKellen in King Lear (also broadcast to cinemas internationally by NT Live); Alecky Blythe’s Our Generation streamed via NT At Home, and most recently Susan Stroman’s Crazy for you.
Festival 2024 includes world premieres and renowned plays, as well as a spectacular summer event, Cameron Mackintosh and Matthew Bourne reimagine the classic Musical Oliver! Playing from July 8 through to September, before a west end transfer at Christmas.
