The King and I – Theatre Royal

This multi award-winning Broadway production follows Anna, a widowed British schoolteacher brought to Siam to tutor the King’s children. She soon finds herself struggling with the cultural differences and the headstrong King. Will she eventually be able to connect with him?

The King and I is one of the greatest golden-age musicals, featuring more than 50 West End and Broadway performers and a full-scale orchestra.

You’ll be completely immersed in the world of Siam and the unlikely relationship between a schoolteacher and a King.
