BYMT: The Cottingley Fairies

Until Sun 12 Apr View Venues, Dates & Times

A new musical presented by British Youth Music Theatre

This new musical is inspired by the extraordinary true story of two girls who convinced the world they had photographed real fairies. British Youth Music Theatre partners with Birmingham Hippodrome to revive this century-old story of imagination for a new generation, with an earthy, alternative folk score blended with the nostalgia of 1970s rock.

Meet the fairy photographers and their believers, such as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and ask yourself: do we need evidence to believe the impossible?

Written by Packham & Kealy, the 2025 Cameron Mackintosh Resident Writing Team, The Cottingley Fairies opens BYMT’s 2026 season of new musicals.
