Christmas starts here! Don't miss 'Miscast Musicals & Mistletoe'

The showtunes you love. The casting you didn’t see coming. This December, MTDXB invites you to expect the unexpected at Miscast Musicals & Mistletoe. Join us at Jumeirah Beach Hotel Theatre on Saturday 5 December at 3pm or 8pm for a show full of musical theatre surprises and festive favourites.
 

One stage. Two acts. Plenty of surprises. Act One turns musical theatre casting on its head: men take on songs made famous by women, women step into roles usually played by men, and grown-up performers embrace numbers you might never expect to hear them sing. The usual casting rules are taking the night off, giving familiar favourites a fresh voice. Expect powerhouse vocals, playful comedy, and a few moments that may catch you off guard.
 

Featuring songs from Matilda, The Book of Mormon, Annie, Wicked, Billy Elliot, Evita - and more - the programme brings together big characters, bold ambitions, and some gloriously unexpected combinations. Whether you know every lyric or simply love a great performance, there’s plenty to get swept up in.
 

In Act Two, we'll bring Christmas to the theatre through festive classics, holiday favourites from stage and screen and even a bit of panto magic thrown in for good measure! From joyful ensemble numbers to quieter festive moments, it’s a celebration of the season with all the warmth and theatrical flair MTDXB audiences have come to love.
 

Gather your friends, add a little festive flair to your outfit - Christmas Jumpers or T-Shirts welcome! - and settle in for a show with unexpected voices, unforgettable showtunes and some fabulously festive favourites!
