A woman dubbed the 'Queen of the West End' is coming to Plymouth as part of her successful one-woman tour. Kerry Ellis will return to intimate venues next autumn with her Queen of the West End tour.

The show, which kicked off in September and runs until November this year, is already attracting rave reviews with its combination of music and chat.

Kerry will be visiting Plymouth's Quad Theatre on Wedneday, November 19, 2025, sharing stories from her illustrious 20-year stage and recording career, coinciding with the release of her memoirs of the same name.

She says: “I am loving being on this tour, we are having so much fun, and I feel very fortunate to be able to add more dates and more venues next autumn. I cannot wait to hit the road again, and meet more of my lovely fans!”

Kerry has starred in musical theatre’s biggest roles, from My Fair Lady to We Will Rock You, from Les Misérables to Wicked, in both the West End and on Broadway.

Her list of credits is remarkable and also include Oliver!, Cats, Miss Saigon, Chess, The War Of The Worlds, and Anything Goes, among many others.

She has recorded four studio albums and toured the world both as a solo artist and with her good friend Sir Brian May.

In Kerry Ellis: Queen of the West End, the girl who grew up admiring musical theatre icons Liza Minnelli and Barbra Streisand looks back on her illustrious career. Singing songs from the biggest musicals and telling stories about how she came to play roles, this is a unique opportunity to see and hear the West End’s biggest hits in very intimate settings.
