Mrs Henderson Presents – History brought to life
There's nothing like a true story to give a stage show a tantalising edge, and this tale is as true as they come. Keep your eyes peeled for our announcement about the chosen West End venue.
Mrs Henderson Presents - The story
It's the 1930s and Laura Henderson, at seventy, has been widowed. And she's bored, bored, bored. How can she fill those achingly lonely, empty hours? When the Windmill theatre comes up for sale, she jumps at the chance to convert a lifetime's love of the stage into a fulfilling hobby... and she actually buys the venue. Thus begins a true-life theatrical legend.
In 1937 Mrs H and her autocratic manager Vivian Van Damm dream up an enormously popular continuous variety review show called Revudeville, a format which catches the theatregoing public's imagination to such a extent that a host more West End venues follow suit. When the Windmill's takings take a battering because of the competition, Mrs Henderson springs into action.
It's hardly the kind of idea you expect from an elderly lady. But when she and Mr Van Damm decide to spice up their revue with nude women a la Moulin Rouge, all hell lets loose.
Thankfully the Lord Chamberlain, the second Earl of Cromer, understands Mrs H's argument. She insists her show gives young men off to war their only chance to see a naked female before potentially being killed in the trenches, and he gives his permission... as long as the women remain completely still at all times.
This satisfies the law and transforms the show from something unacceptable in the stuffy moral climate of the time into something different altogether. The revue is no longer about flaunting sexuality, it's suddenly all about fine art, with the women classified in the same way as Roman statues and nude paintings.
The Windmill remains open throughout the Blitz, with full houses night after night as the bombs fall and London burns. Tragedies happen, disasters are averted, hearts are broken... and Mrs H stands firm as the show goes on, until her death in 1944. It's heart-warming stuff!

What a gemI was not sure ,as I had seen the movie, but it was excellent, it stuck to the premise of the film. Great singing,dancing and acting. Mrs Henderson voice was very clear .The girls were very discreetly placed on stage and was not offensive in anyway.Very rousing and patriotic.

A Fantastic Show!I originally saw the film and thought the stage show would be worth watching. I was right it was absolutely fantastic. The actors all performed brilliantly and they created a genuinely exciting story. The music was played extremely well and added to a wonderful evening. I will be recommending this show to all my friends.

The standing ovation said it all.Enjoyed every minute, as clearly did the rest of the audience. Congratulations to every member of the cast. They were all stars and clearly had enjoyed entertaining us. The smaller size theatre really made you feel you were at the Windmill with them. As seniors who have the time, we enjoy taking in a West End show at least once every month, and this beat several of the 5 Star ones that we have seen recently. Would happily go and see it again.

Review: MRS HENDERSON PRESENTS at the Adelphi Theatre
by Phil Willmott | Thursday, February 18 2016, 15:49
MRS HENDERSON PRESENTS, which is being promoted as a new British musical, has been adapted from a 2005 film of the same name which starred Judy Dench in the title role.
Mrs H was an upperclass lady who took it into her head to buy the dilapidated Windmill Theatre in London's Soho. When her hopes of a non-stop variety review failed to find an audience she hit upon the idea of parading topless show girls on her stage.
