The Time Traveller’s Wife Musical is coming to the UK
The Time Traveller’s Wife: The Musical will deliver a heart-breaking and soaring original musical score by multi–Grammy Award-winning composers Joss Stone and Dave Stewart combined with one of the most beloved novels of the last 50 years.
The brand-new musical is set to have a premiere in the UK in late 2021/early 2022. The production will feature an award-winning creative team that will take this incredible, beloved story and bring it to life, live on stage.
What is The Time Traveller’s Wife about?
Henry and Clare have a love story like no other. It has all the normal criteria: they meet, flirt, fight, love, marry... but all out of order. Henry is often and uncontrollably ripped out of time, because of a rare condition where his genetic clock periodically resets, pulling him into his past or future. He vanishes without warning and without knowledge of where he’ll end up. All he knows is that he’ll always return to Clare, whether she's 5 years old playing in a field or 85.
Who is the Creative Team behind The Time Traveller’s Wife Musical?

It will feature original music and lyrics by multi-award-winners Joss Stone and Dave Stewart (of Eurythmics fame) and have additional lyrics by Kait Kerrigan. The production will be directed by Bill Buckhurst (Sweeney Todd, West End), with musical supervision & arrangement by Nick Finlow and illusions by Chris Fisher (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child).
