Starlight Express

Get your skates on, Starlight Express is back!

Booking until Sunday, 19 April 2026

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s STARLIGHT EXPRESS is now playing in the specially designed Starlight Auditorium at Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre. Audiences will be immersed inside a world of speed, song and storytelling as an incredible cast of 40 whizz around and above, performing some of musical theatre’s most beloved songs, including AC/DC, Make Up My Heart, Light at the End of the Tunnel and the iconic Starlight Express.

As a child’s train set magically comes to life and the engines race to become the fastest in the world, Rusty the steam train has little hope of winning until he is inspired by the legend of the ‘Starlight Express’.

Seen around the world by over 20 million people, STARLIGHT EXPRESS is an electrifying experience for all ages.

Everything works and works spectacularly. Starlight Express has returned, buffed up, refurbished and with a new look and feel that I believe is going to run and run. Get your skates on to see it.
