Come Dancing, the new musical by Kinks frontman Ray Davies, has extended its run at the Theatre Royal Stratford East, where it will now play until November 8.

The show was originally scheduled to run until October 25, but, according to the venue’s artistic director Kerry Michael, it has put on more performances due to audience demand.

“The decision to extend comes in direct response to suggestions and requests from patrons seeking to book beyond October 25 to see the show,” he said. “Our audiences have so far been outstanding and it is wonderful how Come Dancing, an original British musical set in East London, has managed to capture the imagination of not only a local audience but also the wider national and international audience as well.”

The show opened at Stratford East on September 13.
