Oscar-nominated actor John C. Reilly is swapping Hollywood for the London stage, bringing his vaudeville act, Mister Romantic, to the UK for the first time. Taking place at the Soho Theatre Walthamstow on November 18, Reilly will be serenading the audience with tunes from the American songbook. Expect a blend of humor and a dash of melancholy as he interacts with the crowd.

His performance in America was met with applause, with the New York Times calling it 'wryly funny, sometimes tender and sad, but always sincere,' while Vanity Fair labeled it 'fiercely funny.' As if gracing London with his presence wasn't enough, Reilly has also released a Mister Romantic album, What's Not To Love?, in the US.

Reilly, famous for his roles in films like Step Brothers and Chicago, recently chatted on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert about his project and the painstaking process of selecting the perfect love songs for his act. He even performed What’ll I Do?, the theme tune to the UK sitcom Birds Of A Feather, as Mister Romantic.

Prepare for an evening where comedy meets the crooning charm of one of Hollywood's most versatile actors.
