Who's Magic Mike Live For?
Magic Mike Live is built for hen parties, birthdays and nights out with friends. You sit at tables with a drink brought to your seat, the audience makes a lot of noise and plenty of people join in, so it works best with a group that's in the mood for it.
It's the wrong choice if you want a story, because the plot is very light and is only there to link the dances. It's also the wrong choice if a dancer picking you out would ruin your night. Getting involved is voluntary, but the dancers come very close in the Front Row and at the tables, so if you'd rather just watch, sit further back.
What Tickets Cost
Most seats cost around £105 to £135, and premium seats start from around £150. Tickets start from around £45 and go up to around £220 for the best tables. Prices change from date to date. Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday are usually the cheapest, and Friday and Saturday cost more.
The tables and the Front Row are the most expensive seats. Main Floor Row B and Upper Level Row A always cost the same as each other, so choosing between them is about where you want to watch from, not what you pay.
We sell VIP Luxe too, from around £240 a head: one of the two best tables, Prosecco and three rounds of cocktails, then a meet and greet with some of the cast in the Permission Lounge afterwards.
About Magic Mike Live at the Hippodrome Casino
Magic Mike Live was created by Channing Tatum and Reid Carolin, and directed by Tatum with Alison Faulk, who also did the choreography. It began in Las Vegas in 2017 and opened in London on 28 November 2018.
The theatre was rebuilt for it in 2018, and new numbers, dances and aerial acts have been added since.
Arriving
Aim to get here about 30 minutes before, with physical photo ID. The doors open half an hour before the show. Every guest shows ID and has their bag checked, so there's a queue, and once you're through there's time for a drink with your friends. As long as you're in before it starts, you're fine. The show entrance is on Cranbourn Street, with the Box Office just to the right of it.
Bring the physical passport or card. Photos and photocopies aren't accepted, and no valid ID means no entry and no refund, so check everyone in your group has theirs. Staff will also turn away anyone who has had too much to drink.
Before the show
You'll be on the first floor of the casino. The Permission Lounge and the Heliot Steak House are on the same floor, and the steak house has a theatre offer for ticket holders.
Your seat and the drinks
Inside it feels like a club. Most tables are for two, and you book seats rather than whole tables, so if your party doesn't fill one you'll share it. The Front Row wraps right round the stage. Waiters bring drinks to your seat all through the show.
The show
A female MC runs the night and talks to the audience a lot. The dancers perform on the stage, among the tables, on the ledge at the back and up on the Upper Level.
Some of the audience get lap dances at their seats and a few are brought up on stage. It's all voluntary, and the dancers check with people before bringing them up. Touching the performers without being invited isn't tolerated. It's loud, with strobe lighting and theatrical smoke throughout, and there's no interval.
Getting home
The show runs 90 minutes with no interval, so the 9:30pm performance finishes at about 11pm. Leicester Square station is right below the building, and night buses stop on Charing Cross Road.
What's Magic Mike Live About?
It takes the Magic Mike films, about male strippers, and turns them into a live club night: a series of dance, aerial and acrobatic numbers with a host holding it together, and a lot of cheeky comedy in between.
There is a thread of story, but it's thin and it's there to link the dances, so it isn't a musical and doesn't try to be one. People come for the dancing, the stunts and the night out with their friends.
Performance Schedule
Magic Mike Live plays Wednesday to Sunday, with ten shows a week. Thursday, Friday and Saturday have a late show at 9:30pm, and Saturday and Sunday have one at 4pm. There are no Monday or Tuesday performances.
| Day | Matinee | Evening |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | - | - |
| Tuesday | - | - |
| Wednesday | - | 7pm |
| Thursday | - | 7pm and 9:30pm |
| Friday | - | 7pm and 9:30pm |
| Saturday | 4pm | 7pm and 9:30pm |
| Sunday | 4pm | 7pm |
The pattern changes over Christmas and New Year, with some Tuesday shows and none on Christmas Day, so check the time for your date.
Best Seats for Magic Mike Live
Book the Front Row or a Premium Table if you want to be in the middle of it. The stage pushes out into the Main Floor, the tables sit round it on three sides and the dancers work these seats the most. The tables are small and it's a squeeze.
For a good view with less attention, book Main Floor Row A or Row B. Row A sits behind the tables, so it isn't the front. The stage is raised, and the dancers still come down the walkways near you.
Upper Level Row A costs the same as Main Floor Row B and looks down over the whole stage. The dancers come up to the Upper Level too, though less often.
Think twice about the Upper Level side sections and the Upper Raised Seating at the far ends. You may need to lean, and you can miss the part of the stage directly below you.
Every area is broken down in the Tickets and Best Seats tab, and the whole theatre is in our Hippodrome Casino guide.
Call us on 020 7193 9050 and we'll tell you what's left on your date.
Cast and Creative Team
Magic Mike Live has no star. It's a company of dancers, acrobats and musicians with a female MC hosting, and nobody has a named role, so the line-up you see depends on the night.
The full company list, as published on 27 September 2026, is in the Cast and Creatives tab.

Tickets and Best Seats for Magic Mike Live
Two levels: the Main Floor round the stage, and the Upper Level above and behind it.
The dancers use the whole theatre, but the closer you are, the more often they come to you.
The Main Floor
The Front Row wraps right round the stage and down both sides. It's the closest you can get, and it's where the dancers spend the most time. A few Front Row seats lose a little of the stage at moments because of the set.
The Premium Tables sit between the Front Row and Row A. Most are tables for two, and a few seat four. You're buying seats at a table, so a party smaller than the table shares it. The Side Premium Tables run down both sides and are all for two. They're close and busy, and there isn't much room for your arms and legs.
Three tables on each side sit beside the back end of the stage, and they're usually priced well below the Premium Tables, which makes them good value for a small group. Two of them seat four. The Raised Tables down the right side are tables for two.
Row A and Row B curve round behind the tables. They're the seats for a clear view with a bit less attention, and the stage is raised enough to see over the tables.
Couch A and Couch B are in the back corners of the Main Floor and Couch C runs down the left side. They suit a group sitting together, and they're among the cheaper seats.
The Upper Level
Row A sits behind the performance ledge that runs across the back of the stage, and looks down over everything. It costs the same as Main Floor Row B, so if you like seeing the whole picture, take this one.
Row B is behind it, with the five-seat Upper Level Couch in the middle. The dancers come up here as well, less often than downstairs, and the back of this level gets the least attention in the theatre.
The side sections of Rows A and B run down the walls. You may need to lean to follow the action as it moves into the audience. The Upper Raised Seating at the far ends can miss the part of the stage right below it, and the railing gets in the way at times. Standing places at the back corners are sold for some performances.
VIP Luxe
VIP Luxe puts you at one of two Premium Tables, one in the centre facing the tip of the stage and the other on the left. The package covers skipping the queue at the door, Prosecco on arrival and three rounds of cocktails served at your table. After the show there's a reserved Permission Lounge table with one more drink, two small plates and photos with some of the cast. From around £240.

Magic Mike Live Reviews
Magic Mike Live opened in London in November 2018 to threes and fours. The critics agreed about the dancing and the staging, which they praised almost without exception. Where they split was the MC's script and the "empowerment" message around the stripping, which several found wore thin.
WhatsOnStage enjoyed it most: "The actual show is as tight as the performers' pants," wrote Sita McIntosh, who found the production values "impressively high" (4/5, 29 November 2018). Musical Theatre Review called it "a tight production, well staged and choreographed" (4/5, 3 December 2018).
The Independent's Hugh Montgomery was cooler on the framing, but thought the show found "enough of the right balance between sexy, skilful and silly" (3/5, 29 November 2018). Time Out's Laura Richards thought it a bit basic but wrote "Go in the right mood with a gang of girls and this could be some kind of magic" (3/5, November 2018).
The sharpest criticism came from Alice Jones in the i, who wrote: "It's quite a smart and funny start, but it soon unravels because there is nowhere for it to go" (unrated, 29 November 2018).
Several critics said, independently, that it works best with a group of friends and a drink. Several also said it was less raunchy than they expected.
These reviews describe the 2018 company, none of whom are in the 2026 company, and the production has added new numbers since. What still holds is the format: the club setting, the staging and the dancers working the whole theatre. Audience reviews run warmer than the critics did. There's more in what the critics said.
