Join us as we explore the music of A Tale of Fellowship, a new musical by Brighton's Joseph Purdue. The evening will feature performances from some of the West End’s finest, including Tom Hier (Miss Saigon, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat) and Samantha Thomas (WICKED, Les Misérables).

A Tale of Fellowship is a true story inspired by four young creatives who hope to combine their artistic talents to bring positive change to the world. The musical has been in development for over 10 years — a true labour of love from composer and creator Joseph Purdue.

Joseph first began writing the musical after discovering a letter written to J.R.R. Tolkien by his close friend G.B. Smith in one of Tolkien’s biographies. Deeply moved by its message, he was inspired to tell a story of friendship, creativity, and the enduring power of art.

This special evening celebrates the musical’s 10-year journey while also raising funds for its week-long run in 2027. Proceeds from the event will support venue hire, performer fees, advertising, programme printing, and production costs.
