Hey there. I'll be in London early December and need show recommendations. Last December I saw Lazarus, The Last Five Years, Side Show, In the Heights and Dreamgirls.
I know Big Fish is starting soon and will likely get tickets to that as as I loved it in NY. Anything new expected to be announced soon?
Follies and Network will be going on during that time (Network I believe is currently sold out but periodically tickets do pop up on the National Theatre website - that's how I snagged mine).
in doing my research, I came across amazing reviews for a new musical called Everybody isTalking About Jamie, which is transferring to the West End in November. The reviews for its earlier run were amazing, and it sounds wonderful. Maybe take a look and see what you think.
(I also have tickets for The Ferryman and 42nd St. still trying to decide on one more show.)
You should try a traditional pantomime as well-nothing like it anywhere else but in the UK! The Palladium is usually the big glitzy one, (this year is Dick Whittington) but a lot of theatres do their own too.
