Stories - The Tap Dance Sensation
Stories is a tap dance show from RB Dance Company, a French ensemble that reached the finals of France's Got Talent in 2018 and 2024. It blends urban jazz, tap and percussion.
The story follows Icarus, a young actor under the tight control of his film director, who struggles to break free after a confrontation. The show has toured Europe and had a first London run at the Peacock Theatre in 2024. This return at the Peacock Theatre is a run of 20 new performances. The running time is 1 hour 10 minutes with no interval.
Buying advice
How to book
Stories sells steadily, so there's no rush, and prices are low. Off-peak performances are £18 for every seat, while peak prices reach £38, so an off-peak date is a big saving.
Ways to pay less
There's no long game here, so book for the date you can make. The easiest saving is to pick an off-peak date, where mid-range seats are £18 against £25 on peak dates, about 39% more. Beyond that, 16–30-year-olds pay from £10, and groups of ten or more get the biggest reduction, with 20% off Stalls tickets for groups of 20+.

Where to sit
At the Peacock, the front of the Dress Circle has superb elevated views, but legroom in Rows F to J is tight. The Stalls are deep with good sightlines, but the overhang from Row U back is punishing.
