with all things Scouts! The Musical.

Welcome to the annual

Scout Games!

Scouts from around the world have gathered to compete but when someone threatens to sabotage the competition, it is up to Joe and Ayesha to put aside their rivalries and use their newfound skills to save the day!

Scouts! The Musical has been created in partnership with the Scout Association, a global charity which teach skills for life to 57 million Scouts and Guides worldwide. The production was selected for BEAM2021, the UK’s leading industry showcase of new musical theatre, and in 2020 we performed a number from the show for the finale of the Scout event ‘The Great Indoors Weekender’! Our heart-warming new musical has everything from hypnotic tango dance breaks to campfire rock ballads. To put it simply, this show is sheer FUN.

In 2023, Scouts! The Musical premiered at The Other Palace where the show was nominated for both Best Off-West End Production at The WhatsOnStage Awards and Best Performance Ensemble at The Offies, as well as being described as ‘Incredible’ by Chief Scout Bear Grylls himself! The production made it into First Night Magazine’s list of 50 Best Shows of 2023 and Theatre & Tonic’s list of Top Shows of 2023.

Check out an interview between Gigglemug AD & co-writer of the show Sam Cochrane and The Scouts here, as well as their review of the show here. Scouts! The Musical also featured on The Other Palace’s Making A Musical podcast which you can listen to here.
