I have seen about 12 shows in London.
I LOVED - Blood Brothers - fantastic!!! I highly suggest seeing it...you'll laugh and cry. The score is wonderful.
I believe Complete Works of William Shakespeare, is an absolute must in London. (and now they have an American version - that will probably be quite funny!)
My friend who lives in England said Fame was fantastic. I have heard similar comments.
Hope this helps!!!!
(I hated Jerry Springer the Opera, but that is just my opinion)

Will be going to London next week and am wondering if the I think called Solid Gold Cadillac is on with Patricia Rutledge. Have wanted to see her in something as thoroughly enjoyed her Keeping Up Appearances on the tele. Thank you. halfpint

"the producers" would be my first choice.Nathan Lane is lead now. defintely book ahead.
blood brothers.-good.
and the queen "we will rock you" gets you up off your seat.
don't know which dramas would be best.

Two new ones which should be fantastic are Woman In White (the new one from Andrew Lloyd Weber with Michael Crawford), and a new version of Mary Poppins, put on by Cameron Mackintosh. I'm going to see them in December, I'll let you know how they are.

There are generally pretty extensive excerpts from the reviews for shows on www.albemarle-london.com
By the way the reviews for Mary Poppins have ranged from good to raves. Many have said it is much better than the movie.

The London Theatre Guide Online does their own reviews, and also provides links to the full text of many newspaper reviews. Go to http://www.londontheatre.co.uk/londo...iews/index.htm and click on the name of the show you're interested in. External links to newspaper reviews will be at the bottom of the page.

I believe Solid Gold Cadillac is playing thru Jan 15. I saw it in Nov. Very funny play. Patricia Routledge is excellent. You will enjoy it.
whatsonstage.com provides not only reviews but lots of info on the theatre - openings,closings, seating charts,etc. Very good site.
Mamma Mia and Le Mis are both worth seeing. 2 of my favorite plays.

Mamma Mia is a must! Took my whole family and even the 8 yo loved it!
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is amazing if you have children
