Set in the enchanted world of Ancient Britain, Magical Merlin whisks you away to a land of witches, wizards, and legendary adventures. When the baby King Arthur is born and his jealous sister Morgan Le Fay starts turning people into animals, it's up to Merlin to save the kingdom. With help from brave Sir Lancelot and kind-hearted Princess Guinevere, the quest takes them past fire-breathing dragons and into the magical waters of The Lady of the Lake - all before Morgan can turn the royal baby into a hamster!

Bursting with catchy songs, dazzling choreography and laugh-out-loud moments, Magical Merlin celebrates friendship, courage, and believing in yourself. It's a theatrical treat that will leave the whole family spellbound.

Perform Productions West End show reviews

We loved it. It was perfectly pitched for the children. As they knew the story line and some of the songs from their drama sessions they were able to immediately engage with the play. My daughter was singing and dancing to the songs she knew.

We absolutely loved it!! The singing was out of this world, the actors were excellent and captivated us from the moment they set foot on the stage. 45 minutes of brilliant entertainment. Everything a theatre visit should be.
