Following this year’s sell-out West End run of The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals, StarKid’s next hit musical Nerdy Prudes Must Die comes to London in 2027 with more screams, bigger laughs and a bloody good time
Written by Nick and Matt Lang with music and lyrics by Jeff Blim, Nerdy Prudes Must Die will feature the entire original cast at the Apollo Theatre from Saturday 6 February until Sunday 7 March 2027.
Directed and choreographed by Lauren Lopez, the London run of Nerdy Prudes Must Die will feature Will Branner as Max Jägerman, Mariah Rose Faith Casillas as Steph Lauter, Bryce Charles as Detective Shapiro, Corey Dorris as Mayor Lauter, Angela Giarratana as Grace Chasity, Lauren Lopez as Ruth Fleming, Jon Matteson as Richie Lipschitz, Curt Mega as Officer Bailey, Joey Richter as Peter Spankoffski and Kim Whalen as Miss Mulberry.
At Hatchetfield High, the school’s biggest losers accidentally unleash an ancient evil: a murderous spirit with a deadly vendetta against nerds. Now Grace Chasity, and a gloriously chaotic gang of social outcasts must face a bully from beyond the grave before Hatchetfield becomes his latest victim.
Packed with killer songs, razor-sharp comedy and shocking twists, Nerdy Prudes Must Die is a thrilling rollercoaster of laughs and screams.
Since becoming an internet phenomenon, StarKid has built a fiercely devoted global fanbase through its viral musicals and the ever-expanding Hatchetfield saga, notching up a total of over 360 million views on the StarKid Productions’ YouTube channel.
StarKid made its UK debut at The London Palladium in May 2024 with the sell-out IT’S STARKID INNIT and returned to the venue in April 2025 with I CAN’T BELIEVE IT’S BEEN A LITTLE LESS THAN A YEAR, which also sold-out.
