I'm returning to London for another theatre trip and I have time to see at least 10 shows and would love to know what not to miss and what to skip.  

Dreamgirls, Nice Fish, Lazarus, and Peter Pan Goes Wrong are definitely on my list.  I'm curious to know if La Soiree, The Kite Runner, The Woman in Black, The Railway Children and Motown are worth checking out as well as information on any other must sees that are currently running.  I have seen most of the shows that have been around since at least the summer, so looking for recommendations of other pieces that have opened more recently.

The Kit Runner hasn't opened yet, so it's hard to say. The woman in black is surely not a masterpiece and it's not that scary by today's standards, but it's very well crafted, so it's worthy a visit. 

Death Takes A Holiday at Charing Cross Theatre? it hasn't opened yet, but their production of Titanic and Ragtime were amazing, I'll surely go to see it.

Thanks for the tips! Death Takes a Holiday would have been great as I missed it in New York, but alas it doesn't open until the week after I leave.  I did manage to snag tickets for Harry Potter when I'm there yesterday so that's exciting.  I'd love to go to the closing of In the Heights but it is sold out.  If anyone has an extra ticket to sell for that, please message me.  Recommendations to anything else are appreciated.
