How To Win Against History

The solid gold, diamante-studded hit is back, bigger and more sparkly than ever!

Henry Cyril Paget was one of the world's wealthiest men, until he lost it all by being too damn fabulous. This fierce and tragi-gorgeous comedy musical is a true story about expectations, masculinity, privilege and failure on an epic scale. It's about feeling desperately weird and alone but knowing that to fit in would cost you everything.

Bristol Old Vic and The Olivier Award-winning Producers of Kathy and Stella Solve a Murder! present the Edinburgh Fringe smash-hit in a new production for 2025, marking the 150th anniversary of Paget’s birth.
