Death Note - The Musical in London from 30th July

Pitch perfect murder?

Written by Ross Locksley on 27 Feb 2026



If you're looking for a way to spend a barmy summer's eve, you could pay a visit to The Barbican in London and catch one of only 50 performances of Death Note: The Musical, a stage play with music from Tony, Grammy and Emmy nominee Frank Wildhorn and Lyrics by Jack Murphy. The shows run from July 30th to September 12th.

When brilliant student Light Yagami discovers a notebook with the power over life and death, his quest to reshape the world sparks a relentless battle of wits with the elusive detective L, where every name carries consequences.

Write a name. Change the world.

Tickers are available via the Barbican website, starting at £25.
