It’s the greatest show…a day of musical theatre excitement and excellence that comes to Sheffield this summer!
Roundabout are incredibly excited to be bringing you this brand new theatrical extravaganza that will be LIVE in the orange car park at Meadowhall Shopping Centre on Saturday June 12.
There will be four live performances throughout the day – at 10am, 1pm, 4pm and 7pm – giving plenty of opportunity for South Yorkshire’s most talented actors, singers and theatre companies to take to the stage for the first time since the pandemic lockdown saw all live performances cancelled.
The shows will have a drive-in format, with all vehicles safely social distanced and with the numbers of performers on stage limited to follow all current government safety guidelines.
Early bird tickets are limited for two weeks from the launch date.
To get your tickets and see the running order for each show, visit our event page.
More information including what to expect on the day and how to get to the venue will be sent to you nearer the time of the event, using the email address provided at the time of booking.
Tickets:
One ticket includes admission for one car into the event. Please make sure you specify the number of people in your car at the time of purchase, as we must be aware of the number of people on site for health and safety. If you attend the event with more people in your car than is specified on your ticket, you will be unable to enter. Additional tickets may not be available on the door if capacity is reached.
You will be directed to an available parking spot, and you will have a designated space to the left of your vehicle to sit, dance and sing along in. You are more than welcome to stay in your vehicle for the duration of the show, but please keep in mind that those sitting in the back may need to adjust their position so they are not obstructed by those in the front seats.

FAQs:
How do I contact customer services?
For any queries relating specifically to the event, please contact Emily.bush@roundaboutltd.org.
Will I receive a physical ticket(s)?
You will receive an online booking confirmation email with your tickets attached from The Leadmill. You will need to show your confirmation email at the event, which will be scanned to show how many tickets you have purchased for those within your vehicle.
Will there be parking?
This is a drive-in style cinema and therefore all attendees must attend the event in a car. All cars will be parked on a hard-standing car park within the grounds of Meadowhall Orange Car park. Our volunteers will show you where to park on arrival.
Please note that cars may be allocated a parking space based on size, with bigger vehicles positioned towards the back. Our large screen and sound system will ensure everyone can enjoy the spectacle of the event, wherever they are parked. Once parked, we ask you not to leave your allocated bay until the end of the event, unless you need to visit the toilet facilities. Our parking stewards will let you know when you are able to exit the site.
How many people can I bring in my car?
The ticket price states how many people should be in your car, this includes children. Please note that those seated in the back of the vehicle may need to adjust their position so that they are not obstructed by those in the front seats if you wish to sit in your car whilst watching the show.
Will you be serving food?
We will be offering a delicious food and drink delivery service to your vehicle. All food can be pre-ordered online before your event start. Pre-ordering food helps our food vendors work out how many orders they need to prepare in advance of each event to reduce food waste. For health and safety purposes, please take your rubbish away with you after the event. Our delivery staff will pass your food and drink orders to you, through the driver’s side window.
Further details of how to order food will be sent closer to the event date.

Can I leave my car engine switched on during the event?
We ask that all cars switch their engines off once they are parked at the event. We also ask that you turn your exterior and interior car lights off once the show has started. We appreciate that it may get warm, so you can switch your engines on to wind down your windows, but please only do so if necessary. You will have a space to the left of your vehicle that you can use to exit your vehicle and watch the show. We recommend opening a window to help prevent your windows from steaming up.
How will I listen to the show?
