THE UNLIKELY PILGRIMAGE OF HAROLD FRY

Following a sold-out run at the Chichester Festival Theatre, the 5 Star “pitch-perfect musical” (The Times) transfers to the West End. Funny, profound, deeply moving and uplifting, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry is a joyous new musical adapted by Rachel Joyce from her multi million-selling novel, with “a ravishing score” (The Times) by the chart-topping indie musician, Passenger (Let Her Go). Harold Fry was never meant to be a hero. An ordinary man in an ordinary life until a letter from a long-lost friend sends him out the front door… and he keeps on walking. From Devon’s quiet lanes to the windswept streets of Berwick-upon-Tweed, his journey becomes a pilgrimage of love, redemption, and second chances. Strangers turn into companions, kindness appears in unexpected places, and the road reveals more than Harold ever imagined. Back home, his wife Maureen begins her own journey, one that might bring them together again. The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry is a moving celebration of the human spirit and a reminder it’s never too late to start again. Katy Rudd (Ballet Shoes, The Ocean at the End of the Lane NT/West End) directs Mark Addy, (The Full Monty, The Rig and Game of Thrones) as Harold and Jenna Russell, (Sunday in the Park with George, Hello, Dolly) as Maureen.
