LONDON PREMIERE: ONE NIGHT ONLY STAGED CONCERT
MONDAY, MARCH 30 2026 at The Other Palace
In Pieces is a love story about the people you don’t end up with.
Written and composed by Fred Ebb Award and Jonathan Larson Grant Finalist, Joey Contreras, In Pieces is a bold, contemporary new musical featuring a pop-driven score that dives into echoes of love, loss, and self-discovery by weaving the romantic journeys of six characters across three-chapters of life. As friends, family, and former lovers confront old wounds and unresolved feelings, will they learn to coexist with the joy and pain of the past?
In Pieces has become a global sensation with a massive social media fanbase, tens of millions of streams, and licensed productions internationally. NOW, the team is bringing the staged concert to premiere in London for a one-night-only event.
“In Pieces makes the case for living life with arms wide open, despite all the uncertainties . . . it is all about persevering.”
