Rachel Zegler and Ben Platt lead the 25th anniversary concert of ‘The Last Five Years’ at the London Palladium, running from 24 to 29 March 2026.
Rachel Zegler and Ben Platt are set to share the stage in a special concert version of ‘The Last Five Years’, celebrating the show’s 25th anniversary at the iconic London Palladium.
The concert will be conducted and directed by Jason Robert Brown, the show’s original composer and the creative mind behind ‘Parade’ and ‘The Bridges of Madison County’. Performances will take place from 24 to 29 March 2026, promising an intimate, emotional, and reimagined experience of this acclaimed musical.
Ben Platt, winner of Tony, Grammy and Emmy Awards, is best known for ‘Dear Evan Hansen’, ‘Pitch Perfect’ and ‘Parade’. Meanwhile, Rachel Zegler, a Golden Globe winner, recently completed a sold-out run of ‘Evita’ at the same London venue. The actress has also starred in ‘The Hunger Games’, ‘Snow White’ and ‘West Side Story’.
The American performer has had an especially busy month in the UK, appearing on ‘The Graham Norton Show’ and performing ‘Don’t Cry For Me Argentina’ on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’. Earlier this month, she also held her first solo concert at the London Palladium, strengthening her connection with British audiences.
Producer Jamie Lambert, from Lambert Jackson, shared his excitement about the project: “This beautiful show, which has touched so many people around the world, truly deserves a cast of this calibre for its anniversary. Working again with Jason Robert Brown is an absolute privilege.”
Tickets for ‘The Last Five Years in Concert’ go on sale from 31 October, and it is already shaping up to be one of London’s most anticipated theatre events of 2026.
