The Theatre at the Hippodrome Casino is being transformed into an intimate, 325-seater space for the show which takes place Magic Mike's mythical Club Domina with a diverse group of artists from all over the world performing 360ยบ sexy dance routines and acrobatics mixed with speciality acts.

Simon Thomas, CEO of The Hippodrome Casino said:"In so many ways Magic Mike Live is a perfect fit for us," "Since 1900, the venue has been delighting, shocking and reinventing the way London and its visitors are entertained. This is yet another example of how the Hippodrome resolutely refuses to stand still. As we prepare to close our theatre for a three-month, multi-million pound refurbishment, my senior management and our 730 employees look forward to joining all of London in giving Channing Tatum, the incredibly talented performers and his world-class production team, the warmest welcome the capital can muster."
