Here is our guide to some of the best shows in London's West End, including long-running musicals such as The Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables and Disney's The Lion King to new shows, such as Mary Poppins, Moulin Rouge and Pretty Woman.

What are some of the most popular London musicals?

There are a variety of popular London musicals that cater to a range of interests and preferences. For example, the long-running musical Les Misérables continues to be a popular choice for theatre-goers, while newer musicals such as Hamilton and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child have also been well-received. Other popular musicals currently playing in London include The Lion King, Wicked, Mamma Mia!, and The Phantom of the Opera.

What are the origins of London musicals?

The origins of London musicals can be traced back to the city's rich history of theatre and music. The first professional theatre in London was the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, which opened in 1663. This theatre was home to many of the city's most popular musicals, including The Beggar's Opera (1728), The Maid of the Mill (1765), and The Beggar's Opera (1728).

How have London musicals evolved over time?

The history of London musicals is a long and rich one, dating back to the early days of the city's theatre scene. The first musicals in London were probably those that were performed in the city's inns and taverns, which were popular entertainment venues in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. These early musicals were often quite bawdy and featured crude humor and sexually suggestive lyrics. As the city's theatre scene grew and developed, so did its musicals.

How expensive are London musicals?

There is no definitive answer to this question as the cost of London musicals can vary greatly depending on a number of factors. The price of a ticket will usually depend on the popularity of the show, the venue, the time of year and the day of the week. For example, a musical that is playing at a popular West End theatre is likely to be more expensive than one playing at a smaller venue.

Did you know, The line "Nobody puts Baby in a corner." was voted as the #98 all-time favourite movie quote by the American Film Institute.

I am sometimes asked if I’ve seen something at the Edinburgh Fringe that went on to become a success elsewhere, and the default answer is Six. It was the talk of the Fringe in 2018, and having taken one of the largest Fringe venues, such was its success there that, if I recall correctly, they had sold out by the time I filed my review. They added extra matinees, and they sold out too. It is, truth be told, a lot of fun, and with the rising cost of living at the time of writing as well as … [Read more...]
