Magic Mike Live announces Aylesbury as preview venue ahead of international tour
A world-famous striptease show is heading to Aylesbury ahead of its next international tour.
Aylesbury Waterside Theatre is hosting Magic Mike Live between August 27-29. Magic Mike has become a world-famous popular night out event and the performances heading to Aylesbury are created and co-directed by Hollywood star Channing Tatum.
Aylesbury has been selected as the place where the show will be performed before a highly-anticipated international tour in 2027. Across six shows visitors will witness new scenes and an entirely new set before the production embarks on its world tour.
"Nearly a million guests have joined us for more than 3,000 performances of Magic Mike Live at The Hippodrome Casino in London,” shared Vincent Marini, president of content and production at Free Association Live. “Our fans across the UK are the ones who’ve made this dream possible, so when we began conceiving the international tour a few years ago, we knew immediately that they should be the first ones to experience this new show and help us further develop it before it heads out across the globe to Australia and Asia next year. This will be the first time the show will play anywhere outside of The Hippodrome in the UK, and we couldn’t be more excited to take this experience to the next level.”
It has been announced that the Aylesbury shows will contain the biggest ever cast for Magic Mike Live. The shows will also feature new musical numbers and choreography, new costumes, and a much-anticipated new venue design.
“This is the most ambitious production of Magic Mike Live we have ever created, a genuinely new show staged at a scale we have never attempted before, and on behalf of Channing and our entire creative team, we would love our fans from across the UK to join us and become a part of this exciting new chapter,” added Mr Marini.
Magic Mike shows have soared in popularity since the release of the film of the same name in 2012 starring Mr Tatum. Magic Mike shows have enjoyed long residencies in entertainment capitals such as Las Vegas and London. A Magic Mike Live residence is being prepared for a Times Square venue in New York later this year.
