A new musical version of Dodie Smith’s classic book 101 Dalmatians will embark on a UK tour next year playing two Midlands venues in the summer.

This new musical is written by Douglas Hodge (music and lyrics) and Johnny McKnight (book), from a stage adaptation by Zinnie Harris and is reimagined from the acclaimed Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre production in 2022. Cast and creative team to be announced.

When fashionista Cruella de Vil plots to swipe all the Dalmatian puppies in town to create her fabulous new fur coat, there’s trouble ahead for Pongo and Perdi and their litter of adorable, tail-wagging young pups.

This classic canine caper is brought to life on stage with spectacular puppetry, show-stopping choreography, hilarious songs and irresistible puppies!

101 Dalmatians shows at The Alexandra, Birmingham from Tuesday 2 – Saturday 6 July 2024 and Wolverhampton Grand Theatre from Tuesday 20 - Saturday 24 August 2024, with tickets now on sale.
