Here are the current standings for UK / West End as of Sunday 12, October.

Not well known in the UK, the "secret show" finally revealed itself at the St James Theatre, and now it's opened for a run at the Apollo Theatre in the West End.

Following a critically acclaimed run at the 2013 Edinburgh Fringe, William Gaminara's comedy The Three Lionsreturns for a national tour and run at St. James Theatre, London. The production begins its tour at Yvonne Arnaud, Guildford (2 - 7 March 2015), before travelling to the New Wolsey Theatre Ipswich (9 - 14 March 2015) and Liverpool Playhouse (16 - 21 March), ahead of a six week run at St James Theatre. There it will open on 26 March, with previews from 24 March, and run until 2 May. Philip Wilson directs Dugald Bruce-Lockhart, Tom Davey and Sean Browne - recreating their roles of David Beckham, David Cameron and Prince William from the original run.

London's Penelope Pennywise talks about the West End transfer of Urinetown, why she thinks Sophie Thompson is one of the best actresses around today - and how not to injure yourself when you fall off a stage...

We talk to Joanna Riding about her forthcoming cabaret as well as her recent West End roles - and find out why she's looking ahead to 2015...

Matthew Seadon-Young talks about Jenna Russell, the West End, and trying on Richard Fleeshman's vest for size...

The Howard Goodall season continues at the Union Theatre in Southwark, a celebration of a neglected musical theatre composer; this production of Love Story showcases the strengths of one of his most famous pieces but also occasionally highlights its weaknesses.

After five hilarious years and over 2000 performances Off-Broadway, ALTAR BOYZ makes its UK Premiere in a strictly limited run of 14 performances at Greenwich Theatre from tonight 3 October 2014.

Of course the launch of voting for the 2014 BWW:UK Awards is the biggest story on this side of the pond this month...but in case you're looking for a new show or two, then London is definitely the place to be.

Voting is now open for the 2014 BWW:UK Awards! After your nominations, these shortlists have been compiled - who will pick up the prizes this year?

It seems odd to go to the Dominion Theatre and not see that giant golden statue of Freddie Mercury looking down on you. After this limited run of Evita, one wonders if they'll use the space to honour Madalena Alberto, who gives a simply astonishing performance as Eva Peron.

We talk to London's new Eva Peron about the West End run, filling the Dominion - and singing Don't Cry For Me Argentina eight shows a week.

In case you missed it, BWW:UK were invited to take up residency in the Once Tweet Seat last night (Tuesday September 16). Not sure what a tweet seat is?

Two internationally acclaimed productions receive their London premieres at the Young Vic in 2015. Bull, Mike Bartlett's dark workplace comedy will run 8 January - 7 February 2015. Lippy, an exploration of a real-life Irish tragedy and a major hit at the Dublin and Edinburgh Festivals, will run 19 February - 21 March 2015.

As you'd probably expect, Forbidden Broadway pokes fun at itself from the outset, before anybody else can get a jab in, pointing out its swift (and perhaps a little surprising) transfer and its less-than-prime location.

UK editor-in-chief Carrie Dunn talks to Kerry Ellis about her return to Wicked, her new album, her forthcoming tour, and what her future plans are...

Stars of stage and screen Jake Canuso, James Dreyfuss, Matt Evers, Jill Halfpenny, Helen Lederer and Harriet Thorpe are amongst the special guest presenters for this year's West End Bares 'Nudedunnit?!' gala performances at Cafe de Paris in London's West End on Sunday.

A press statement from Wicked UK has revealed that Nikki Davis-Jones will no longer be starring as Elphaba in either the tour or the London productions of the show.

Today (29 August 2014), the producers of Once announce that Jill Winternitz will be continuing in the role of Girl opposite the previously announced Ronan Keating as Guy. Keating will be joining the Olivier award-winning musical on 17 November 2014, with press night on Tuesday 25 November 2014. Once is currently booking at the Phoenix Theatre to 4 July 2015.

After five hilarious years and over 2000 performances Off-Broadway, ALTAR BOYZ makes its UK Premiere in a strictly limited run of 14 performances at Greenwich Theatre from Friday 3 October 2014.
