To celebrate 25 years as the UK’s most celebrated hip-hop dance theatre company, Olivier Award-winners Boy Blue return to where it all began for an explosive, deeply personal world premiere: 25 Stories.

Co-founders Michael ‘Mikey J’ Asante MBE and Kenrick ‘H2O’ Sandy MBE team up with acclaimed poet and playwright Inua Ellams (Barber Shop Chronicles, Doctor Who) to transform 25 years of memories into a striking show of sound, word, and movement.

Drawn from voice notes, letters, films, and raw conversations contributed by generations of Boy Blue dancers and alumni, 25 Stories turns real lived experiences into a high-octane stage memoir. Built through an intimate call-and-response process, Ellams' poetry fuels Asante's new score and Sandy's iconic choreography - bringing the collective story back to full circle.

Leaves audiences spellbound and profoundly moved.

Booking Enquiries
Our online booking system doesn’t allow customers to leave isolated seats. We do this in order to prevent gaps in the auditorium.

Currently seats are on sale from Row B in the stalls, and it is possible that Row A will go on sale at a later date, so please be aware that purchasing seats in Row B does not guarantee that you will be in the front row.

Please note that our boxes have a slightly restricted view. Seats marked with an ‘i’ on the seating plan have a restricted view.

Our ticket prices increase as the theatre fills. We always recommend booking early to secure the best seats at the best price.

If you require any help with your booking then please contact our Box Office by emailing tickets@stratfordeast.com or calling 020 8534 0310.
