This weekend's Britain's Got Talent finale will celebrate Britain's theatre industry with a big West End spectacular. 

The casts of Les Misérables – The Staged Concert, The Phantom of the Opera and Mary Poppins will perform live.

After seven months of total shutdown, 60 performers including Michael Ball, Matt Lucas, Carrie Hope Fletcher, John Owen-Jones, Shan Ako, Killian Donnelly, Zizi Strallen and Charlie Stemp will be on BGT's stage. This special performance coincides with Les Misérables 35th birthday and The Phantom of the Opera’s 34th birthday.

Cameron Mackintosh said: “Britain’s theatrical talent is the best in the world so it is a wonderful opportunity after seven months of enforced lockdown to be invited by Britain’s Got Talent to showcase three of my greatest British musical hits with their fabulous West End casts all bursting to perform again and remind audiences what an unforgettable thrill it is to enjoy the exhilaration of a live show."

 

The final of Britain's Got Talent will air on ITV at 7.30pm on Saturday.
