One City. Infinite Stories.

A new play created by James Graham.

“In the Victorian surroundings of Wilton's Music Hall, Charles Dickens' London is reimagined for the 21st Century…”

Twenty-four hours in the life of a city that has 371 people in every square kilometre, where every street and square shelters heroes and villains, emotional turmoil, violent allegiances, adventures, the remarkable and the everyday.

Olivier Award-winning playwright James Graham forges a uniquely crowd-sourced play, incorporating scenes by emerging writers into his own sweeping narrative. Dickens' panoply of London and Londoners, his big characters and fantastic stories in Sketches by Boz are updated for the modern age, incorporating the broadest range of voices from across the community in a theatrical whirligig of wonder and imagination.
