Close to You triumphed in New York with rave reviews, and now this wildly successful celebration of Burt Bacharach's songbook has transfered to the heart of London's West End.
The musical premiered to critical acclaim at New York Theatre Workshop, original home of both Once and Rent, becoming the longest running show in the history of that theatre, followed recently by a sold out and highly acclaimed run at The Menier Chocolate Factory.

Close To You: Bacharach Reimagined comes complete with Bacharach's official blessing, the great man himself declaring: "It's a love letter and truly unique. I love it!"
