Lily Allen to Bring Her Acclaimed West End Girl Album to the Stage in 2026 UK Tour
British pop sensation Lily Allen is set to bring her critically-acclaimed album West End Girl to life on stage as she embarks on a major UK theatre tour. The fifth studio album, released last October, marks a bold and introspective chapter in Allen's musical career, exploring themes of love, relationships, and personal growth.
West End Girl tells the story of Allen's tumultuous marriage to Stranger Things actor David Harbour, which reportedly ended in 2024. However, Allen has emphasized that the album is not a straightforward retelling of their relationship, but rather a poetic interpretation of the experiences she's had.
The tour promises to be an immersive theatrical experience, with Allen performing her entire album in front of live audiences at select venues across the UK, including major cities like Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester, and London. Fans can expect to hear hits like "Pussy Palace," "West End Girl," and "Madeline," all of which have charted well in the UK.
The tour marks a significant milestone for Allen, who has faced challenges in her personal life since the album's release. In recent interviews, she opened up about the difficulties of dating after her second marriage ended, including a humorous anecdote about being banned from dating app Hinge due to suspicion of impersonating herself.
Tickets for the 2026 tour will go on sale at 10am GMT on November 7th, and fans are already eagerly anticipating the opportunity to experience Allen's unique brand of introspective pop. With its critically-acclaimed songwriting and poignant storytelling, West End Girl is sure to be a standout in Allen's live shows.
