High Society Tickets - Barbican Theatre

High Society Tickets - London

You are cordially invited to the ultimate swell party of the year, as Cole Porter’s High Society returns to London for a limited season from 19 May to 11 July 2026.

Following hot on the heels of Kiss Me, Kate, and Anything Goes, this eagerly anticipated production delivers another glorious dose of escapism, with musical theatre from the Golden Age at the Barbican.

Helen George stars as glamorous socialite Tracy Lord, and is joined by Felicity Kendal, alongside a full-size orchestra who deliver a score that overflows with the best of Cole Porter’s songbook, including I Love Paris, Just One Of Those Things, True Love, Let’s Misbehave, Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?, Well, Did you Evah, and many more.

Come and join the 28-strong cast for this lavish new production of one of the all-time classic musicals, as preparations for the society wedding of the year descend into chaos, with new flames and old flames all vying for attention as a sharp-eyed tabloid reporter searches for scandal at the waterfront estate.

A multi-award-winning creative team, including choreographer Anthony Van Laast and Rachel Kavanaugh, brings Cole Porter’s High Society brilliantly back to life in London to declare the summer season officially open!

High Society plays at the Barbican Theatre in London. The medium-sized venue located in Silk Street in the City of London has a capacity of 1170.

Seats throughout the auditorium have good legroom and offer excellent views of the action from comfortable seats, with only a few minor overhang restrictions on all levels.

Premium seats are in the centre of the Stalls and Circle, offering clear views, with rows F-J considered particularly good. Seats situated towards the front are preferred for a more intimate experience.

For patrons searching for last-minute bargains, the least expensive seats are found in the Gallery. Please be advised, though, that these seats are high up and quite far from the stage. Seats at the ends of rows in all sections can offer value and are generally cheaper due to side-angled views of the stage.
