Julian Eaves reviews H R Haitch – A Right Royal Musical Comedy at the Union Theatre.
New musical comedy H.R.Haitch by Luke Bateman and Maz Evans comes to the Union Theatre in May for a limited season.
This delicious new musical is the wittiest, most elegant and most extraordinary new show on offer in town right now.

Bateman and Hughes are major new talents and this is an indicator that much, much greater things can be expected of them. All they need now are the right scripts and productions to make that magic happen.
Julie Atheron (Avenue Q, Sister Act) and Andy Coxon (Les Miserables, Beautiful) will join the new monthly showcase for British Musical Theatre talent entitled made In Ldn presented by Interval Productions and The Cock Pit Theatre.
