SAVING BRITNEY IS A HILARIOUS AND HEARTBREAKING LOOK AT CELEBRITY OBSESSION, SEXUALITY AND GROWING UP IN THE EARLY NOUGHTIES

Fresh from a sold out 4 month UK Tour and a critically acclaimed 5* run at the Old Red Lion in 2021, the hit show Saving Britney is coming back to London for THREE NIGHTS ONLY, where it will play at The Other Palace ahead of its Off Broadway Transfer to the SoHo Playhouse New York in July.

“I fell in love instantly. From the moment I saw her on CD:UK. Cat Deeley introducing her like John The Baptist preparing the way of the Lord…”

For Millennials like Jean, they grew up with Britney Spears. Over the course of an hour see how the Princess of Pop influenced Jean’s life and how the connections shared between them lead to an unbelievable moment of self-discovery.

Inspired by the #FreeBritney movement, Saving Britney is a hilarious and heartbreaking look at celebrity obsession, sexuality and growing up in the early noughties; featuring more nostalgia than you can shake a Tamagochi at!

Devised collaboratively by award-winning performer Shereen Roushbaiani (BBC’s Doctors, Pride and Prejudice The Panto, Mummylogues) and Bath-raised writer/director David Shopland (A Dream Of Dying, Into Thin Air, The Little Mermaid), Saving Britney reopened London’s prestigious Old Red Lion Theatre in May 2021 after 425 days, where it played for three weeks to sold out audiences, won rave reviews and was nominated for two OffWestEnd ‘Offie’ Awards; for leading performer and direction as well as one of just six productions in 2021 nominated for a WhatsOnStage Award for Best Off West End Production.

It has since toured the country, selling out venues and winning the hearts of audiences from Blackpool to Plymouth.
