The Tiger Who Came To Tea

About The Tiger Who Came To Tea

The Tiger Who Came To Tea at Haymarket, London is a musical play adapted and directed by David Wood, based on Judith Kerr’s book. The Olivier Award nominated show returns to the West End for Summer 2026.

The story begins when Sophie and her mummy are sitting down to tea and the doorbell rings. What they do not expect to find is a big, stripy tiger at the door. The show follows the tea-guzzling tiger through a family-friendly stage version of teatime mayhem, with magic, sing-along songs and clumsy chaos.

Based on Britain’s best-loved picture book by Judith Kerr, this production brings the classic tale to the stage in a musical format.
