More about Second Best

A magical imagining of the fate of a fictional boy whose life is shaped forever when he loses out on the role of Harry Potter.

At ten years old, Martin Hill was on the brink of stardom, down to the final two contenders for the lead role in the biggest franchise in the world. Now an adult, Martin is about to embark on the ultimate adventure – fatherhood. But he still feels like the boy who lives with rejection.

As Martin navigates this whirlwind of emotions, he is pulled back to that pivotal moment in his past as he struggles to move beyond imagining what his life might have been.

Second Best is a playful yet poignant new comedy about fate, near-misses and the winding paths life takes. It explores the ache of almost touching greatness and the humour and hope that come when dreams remain just out of reach. A story about the tender moments that shape us, Second Best is for anyone who has ever wondered about the road not taken, and whether the other life would have been as glittering as it looks.

View Seating Plan

Riverside Studios sits on the former site of a Victorian iron works, which was converted into a film studio in 1933. Many classic films were made there, such as The Seventh Veil (1945) starring James Mason and Father Brown (1954) with Alec Guinness.

In 1954, the studio was taken over by BBC Television and became home to many of their most iconic programmes, including Hancock’s Half Hour (1957-60) and Doctor Who (1964-68). Riverside brings the world to West London, with a dynamic programme of international theatre, dance, visual art, television, comedy and music.

After five years of redevelopment, the Riverside Studios reopened in 2019 with three studios and a cinema.

Whether it’s theatre, dance, music, comedy, cabaret, spoken word or a corporate event or hire, we welcome them all
