The Devil Wears Prada
The Devil Wears Prada is a new musical on at the West End's Dominion Theatre from 24th October 2024 to 31st May 2025, a huge treat for anyone who adored the 2006 movie of the same name. The movie was directed by David Frankel with screenplay by Aline Brosh McKenna, itself based on the 2003 novel by Lauren Weisberger and starring Meryl Streep as the couture magazine editor and superbitch Miranda Priestly. The story? An aspiring writer gets a fabulous job working for the magazine editor from hell, and soon discovers exactly what kind of person she wants to be.
The creative team for the new musical, described as a 'powerhouse', includes music by the Oscar and Grammy Award winner Elton John, the Tony Award-winning director Jerry Mitchell who gave us Legally Blonde, Pretty Woman and Kinky Boots, along with lyrics by Shaina Taub and book by Kate Wetherhead. The magic is directed and choreographed by Jerry Mitchell with set design by Tim Hatley, costume design by Gregg Barnes, lighting design by Bruno Poet, sound design by Gareth Owen, and casting by Jill Green CDG. It's time to dress up, talk the talk, walk the walk, and fall in love with this shockingly good story. Joyful, funny and uber-glamorous – we guarantee it's going to be amazing.

Great Entertainment Easy to follow - outstanding voices from all performers - big characters and plenty of really funny acting that everyone can enjoy. I found it a really good and entertaining show

Good stage version with some missed chances This show is entertaining, whether you know the film or not. I like the music (Elton John), the three leading ladies (including Debbie Kurup) were very good, Matt Henry as Nigel rather disappointing (not funny at all, seemed to take it too easy). Some points in the story were not set to the point, like Andy´s first time dressed in the new style, focus wasn´t always set well, and the choreography could have been more glamourous. But altogether it is a recommendable show.

nice music, voices, dancers, costumes the comparison with the film is unavoidable and the skill of the cast of the film is unattainable but, the above said, there is a fantastic voice of Andy, excellent acting of Emily, a little underwhelming Miranda, good costumes (except most of the ones for Andy), good dancers but, above all, good Music, thanks Mr. Elton!

Remarkably Fun !! I remember when Vanessa Williams became Miss America in 1984. Seeing her today was such a vacation highlight and truly showcased and exemplified her many talents. We loved the entire cast and recommend this show highly to anyone and everyone!! Happy New Year everyone!!

Elton John turns another great movie into a great musical. This cast was phenomenal, especially Emily and Nigel, and Miranda and Andy. The music was amazing.

Fantastic performances in a musically underwhelming show. The singing, the performances, the costumes and the acting were superb, shame that the songs were not more memorable.
Tibor, 13 Dec 2024
Sensational show, amazing wardrobe and first class acting throughout cant remember when we enjoyed a show as much as this and we are regular theatre goers. One in a million and the wardrobe mistress deserves an Oscar!

Excellent! Well worth a watch The adaptation of a film is tricky but The Devil Wears Prada succeeds where many have failed. The acting, costumes and music are all fabulous. A beautiful colourful few hours of fun, would highly recommend seeing this to everyone

Sensational Londons West End never fails to impress. Having attended musicals in London for forty years you have to go and watch this amazing cast of The Devil Wears Prada.
Such a talented group of individuals who work their socks off to give you nearly two and half hours of pure entertainment.
An absolute must see.
James, 02 Nov 2024
Just brilliant Georgie Buckland was outstanding.
As were all the other main characters and chorus.
I seriously admire the west end dancing and singing fraternity. They are breathtaking. They work so hard to entertain.

Samta, 26 Oct 2024
AMAZING!!! Best ever
Martin, 26 Oct 2024
Disappointing. From such an iconic movie to an average, unimaginative musical - this show missed an opportunity. Elton John’s music too predictable, formulaic & with few shifts in emotion. Excellent vocal performances but the score let this down massively. Enjoyable - but only just.
