Hidden from the world and branded a monster, Benjamin dreams of the chance to live and to love. However, he resigns himself to a life of solitude, until, one day, a miracle appears in the form of the local barmaid, Elowen Keene. But as the years go by, time threatens to tear the two apart.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, a smash-hit folk musical adapted from F. Scott Fitzgerald's short story, comes to London's West End this October at the Ambassadors Theatre after two successful runs at Southwark Playhouse.

With its thunderous, foot-stomping folk score, the production serves as a poignant reminder to seize every moment, regardless of time.
