Back by phenomenal demand in 2027 after a sold-out Barbican season this summer, Death Note has released its official trailer, offering a glimpse at the electrifying scale and spectacle of the hit production that’s taken London by storm.

Hailed as “exhilarating” (The Guardian) and “highly entertaining” (The Times), this boldly reimagined stage adaptation of the iconic Japanese manga features an “electric and symphonic” (BroadwayWorld) score by Tony, Grammy, and Emmy-nominee Frank Wildhorn, lyrics by Jack Murphy and a book by Ivan Mitchell.

Watch the trailer now and book tickets for its highly-anticipated return to the Barbican, playing for 8 weeks only from 23 March 2027.
