London, 1968. At the legendary Talk of the Town, Garland readies herself for a series of concerts that will both captivate and haunt. The world adores her, yet behind the glittering spotlight lies a fierce struggle for control, survival, and the relentless drive to perform at whatever the cost.
Blending the voice, the sparkle, the chaos, and some of Garland’s most unforgettable songs, END OF THE RAINBOW is a theatrical depiction of Judy Garland in the final chapter of her life. Pulling back the curtain on Hollywood’s sweetheart and revealing a life lived under the relentless gaze of fame, where every triumph and heartbreak is played out in technicolour. Witness and celebrate Garland’s extraordinary talent, resilience, and the human story behind the legend in a performance that will stay with you long after the lights go down.
END OF THE RAINBOW is directed by Rupert Hands, with musical supervision and orchestration by Leo Munby, musical direction by Nick Barstow, movement direction by Fabian Aloise, lighting by Prema Mehta, sound by Tony Gayle, set and design by Jasmine Swan, wig, hair and makeup design by Dominique Martin, and dialect by Rebecca Daltry.
