The Showpiece is an extravagent theatrical show that will be played out using the entire store as a stage - all day, every day for fourteen months! A musical relating the past, present and future of Hamleys split into four quarters. Four chapters running from Georgian times through the Victorian era, the 1900's and even into the future.
