Radio Magic Musicals

Magic Musicals is devoted to songs from musical theatre and film musicals. The station brings stage and screen music into a continuing radio programme, with the repertoire rather than a particular decade defining what listeners hear. It is part of Bauer Media Audio UK's Magic Radio family.

Jen Thomas presents the weekday breakfast programme, with Dan Morrissey and Elise Evans carrying the daytime selection and Jim Davis hosting Hometime. Their shows form part of a workday sequence that promises not to repeat a song between nine and five. The repertoire connects West End and Broadway productions with musicals made for the screen.

Ruthie Henshall brings direct stage experience to Behind the Stage Door, sharing stories from her theatre career. She joined the station as a presenter in 2020 and has performed leading roles in productions including Chicago and Les Miserables. Her contribution adds an insider's perspective to a station where the performers and stories behind the songs are an important part of the appeal.

Themed listening includes a programme devoted to the classic Hollywood musical and another concentrating on especially memorable theatrical songs. Overnight sequences continue the stage-and-screen selection. The radio station grew out of Magic's musical-theatre event at the Royal Albert Hall, where West End productions share a concert programme. That connection with live theatre, together with interviews and presenters from the stage, gives the channel a focus beyond simply collecting familiar soundtrack songs.
