Olivier Award winner Layton Williams announces LAYTON LIVE UK tour 2027
Olivier Award winner and Tony Award nominee Layton Williams will embark on a brand-new nationwide tour with LAYTON LIVE, a spectacular evening of music, dance and storytelling celebrating his extraordinary career on stage and screen.
Marking the upcoming 20th anniversary of his professional stage debut, LAYTON LIVE takes audiences on a whistle-stop musical journey through Layton's remarkable career - from his breakout performance in Billy Elliot to his acclaimed turn in Titanique, with stops at Cabaret, Hairspray, Everybody's Talking About Jamie, the Bad Education classroom and even the Strictly Come Dancing ballroom.
LAYTON LIVE will tour the UK from 23 February - 4 April 2027, visiting more than 20 towns and cities including Manchester, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Birmingham, Cardiff and Sheffield, before culminating in a major London performance at the Adelphi Theatre on 4 April.
Backed by a company of exceptional performers, the show promises unforgettable behind-the-scenes stories, powerhouse vocals, spectacular choreography and many of the iconic songs and moments that have defined Layton's career. With a strictly limited run of performances, audiences are encouraged to book early to avoid disappointment.
LAYTON LIVE is a joyful celebration of two decades of one of British entertainment's most dynamic performers, combining show-stopping musical numbers with the humour, honesty and charisma that have made Layton a favourite with audiences across theatre, television and beyond.
