Australia is about to get extremely competitive about cake!
“Critics think it’s ‘delicious’” – Daily Telegraph (UK)
A brand-new musical based on the beloved global television phenomenon The Great British Bake Off is heading to Australia, with its premiere production set to open in Melbourne in 2026 before touring to Sydney and Brisbane.
Produced by See You Sunday, the company behind the sell-out Melbourne season of American Psycho – The Musical, the production promises a joyful, high-energy theatrical event inspired by the world’s most comforting competition.
Producer Mark Taylor says the show feels like the perfect next step for the company following the sell-out season of American Psycho – The Musical.
“After American Psycho, we wanted to swing the pendulum in the most unexpected direction possible. This show is pure joy. It’s funny, heartfelt and unapologetically feel-good. And yes, expect a few soggy bottoms along the way,” he said.
The Great British Bake Off Musical is a comedic and heartwarming celebration of baking, self-discovery, and the joy of community, served with a generous helping of British charm and comedic flair. This delightful show brings the beloved baking competition to life, blending the charm, humour, and heartwarming moments of the TV show with catchy tunes and recognisable characters. Whether you’re a fan of the show or simply love a good musical, this is a theatrical treat that promises to rise to the occasion.
Follow the journey of a group of contestants as they whisk, knead, and bake their way to glory, all under the watchful eyes of judges and hosts who have become household names. With a mix of original songs that capture the spirit of the Bake Off tent—from tense technical challenges to joyous showstoppers—the musical creates a vibrant and immersive experience. Expect a rollercoaster of emotions as friendships form, cakes collapse, and dreams come true.
The Great British Bake Off Musical celebrates friendship, community, triumph, disaster and the sheer emotional stakes of baking under pressure. Expect big laughs, heartfelt moments, show-stopping numbers and lashings of buttercream.
It premiered in London’s West End in 2023, where it was hailed by reviewers as “the epitome of feel-good fun” and “the perfect recipe for a good night out”.
