ALLEGRA
THE HAROLD PINTER THEATRE
8 July – 8 August 2026
From Olivier Award nominated playwright Peter Quilter (End of the Rainbow, Glorious!) comes a new heart-warming comedy with music, starring national treasure Maureen Lipman (BAFTA nominee The Pianist, Coronation Street, See How They Run, Educating Rita).
The cast also features John Middleton (Emmerdale), Elizabeth Bower (Trollied) and Bailey Patrick (London Kills).
Allegra (Maureen Lipman) is full of joy. So much of it that she cannot stop herself from bursting into song. At home, in the street, even in shops and restaurants. Sometimes the music is only a fantasy in her head. But at other times, it results in a loud and disruptive performance that causes chaos in the village where she lives. Allegra’s brother, Ronen, and her carer, Anna, must somehow control her eccentricities and avoid angry visits by the local policeman. But is this possible without destroying the great happiness that fills Allegra’s heart?
Allegra is a moving comedy with spectacular song and dance sequences, but is also a touching and emotional examination of how, sometimes, the most beautiful of minds can start to disappear.
