Michael Starke in The Star

A new entertainment, The Star, will mark Liverpool Playhouse’s 150th anniversary this Christmas in honour of its origins as a music hall venue.

Directed by Philip Wilson, the cast for the production includes Michael Starke, Kevin Harvey, Eithne Browne and Michelle Butterly.

Packed full of songs like "The Old Bull and Bush", "The Marrow Song" and "The Boy I Love Is Up In The Gallery", and with more than a few magic tricks up its sleeve, The Star is at the Playhouse from December 9 to January 14.

Built in 1866, The Star Music Hall established itself as a leading venue before becoming the Liverpool Repertory Theatre in 1911.
