West End Live 2019: Waitress, Fiddler On The Roof and Come From Away join line-up alongside London’s long-running musicals

Some of the capital’s newest musicals are set to take part in West End Live this summer, as the free theatre festival returns to Trafalgar Square for its 15th year.

Running across two days, from Saturday June 22 to Sunday June 23, this year the line-up features a number of West End newbies, including Come From Away, Only Fools And Horses, Waitress, 9 To 5 The Musical, Fiddler On The Roof and Magic Mike Live.

The weekend will also offer theatre-lovers a sneak peak of new shows set to open in the capital shortly, including the Gloria Estefan musical On Your Feet!, Heartbeat Of Home – from the company behind Riverdance – and the Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre’s production of Jesus Christ Superstar.

As with previous years, 2019 will see the return of many old favourites, with performances from Les Miserables, The Phantom Of The Opera, Wicked and Disney’s The Lion King.

The long-running annual festival, which celebrates the best of London's theatre, typically sees thousands gather for a two-day sing-along extravaganza.

More acts, presenters and performance schedules will be announced in due course.
