After a billion years of bad dates, Earth has finally found the one: Hu-manity. Sparks fly. Seeds are sown. Ground is broken. But what starts as a passionate love affair between the universe’s most iconic couple soon spirals into a spectacularly messy breakup.

From the creators of 42 Balloons, Jack Godfrey and Ellie Coote, comes a brand-new British musical packed with original pop songs, charting the rise and fall of the greatest love story ever told. Tickets sold-out for Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2025 at Pleasance Two 30 Jul – 25 Aug 2025, before it headed to London with rave reviews at Southwark Playhouse Elephant 16 Oct – 8 Nov 2026 and The Other Palace 13 Jun – 6 Sep 2026.

Hot Mess is produced by Vicky Graham Productions, Birmingham Hippodrome and Aria Entertainment with Pascal Ultee Productions, Broadway Asia International, TRW Production and Willette Klausner.
