After a sold-out first workshop presentation, Midnight returns to London for a second development run at Sadler’s Wells East, Stratford Cross. The strictly limited engagement will run from Friday 20 February to Sunday 8 March 2026, with performances at 2 pm and 7.30 pm, including weekend matinees.
Set in America’s South during the nineteenth century, Midnight is a sweeping, sung-through musical exploring love, conflict, and the search for understanding. Drawing inspiration from modern classics such as Hamilton, Les Misérables, and Rent, the score blends gospel, rhythm and blues, pop, and traditional musical theatre styles.
This second presentation offers audiences the chance to witness the musical’s evolution in real time. Building on feedback from last year’s workshop, Todrick Hall has refined both story and score for this next chapter.
Todrick Hall, composer and director of Midnight, said:
“It’s an artist’s dream to have their show be appreciated and I am beyond flattered that we have been asked back for an encore run of ‘Midnight’! In a theatre world full of revivals and jukebox musicals I am thrilled to be inviting audiences to see our original musical in its developmental stage.”
The creative team is led by Todrick Hall as Music & Lyrics and Director/Choreographer, with Casting Director Harry Blumenau CDG CSA and Casting Associate Laura Seaborn. Further cast and creatives will be announced soon.
Todrick Hall is one of the most influential storytellers of his generation, with over nine million followers across multiple platforms.
