About us

At The Showtime Group, we create exceptional live music experiences that celebrate iconic artists, unforgettable songs, and the power of performance.

We produce and co-produce live shows across theatre, touring, residencies, and immersive entertainment. From large-scale UK tours and West End-style residencies to cutting-edge immersive music events, every project is built around musical quality, strong storytelling, and a great audience experience.

We work closely with artists, venues, broadcasters, and creative partners to develop shows that feel both carefully crafted and exciting in the moment. Whether it is a fully orchestrated celebration of legendary music, a late-night London residency, or a technically ambitious immersive concert, our focus is always the same: the music comes first.

What We Do

Our work spans the full range of modern live music and performance:

  • National and international touring productions
  • Theatre and residency-based shows
  • Immersive and experiential music events
  • Artist-led and brand-led live concepts

Across all formats, we combine creative direction, production expertise, and commercial discipline to deliver shows that work artistically and financially.

 

The Showtime Group continues to push creative boundaries while staying rooted in what matters most: great music, brilliantly performed
