London Shows
 
Does anyone have any good recommendations on what to see while in London?

When I was in London in November, I saw &quot;Mamma Mia&quot;, &quot;Our House&quot;, &quot;125th Street&quot; and &quot;Sleuth&quot;. I recommend the first 3, as they were all high energy musicals. &quot;Sleuth&quot; although over 25 years old, is not dated. You also can't go wrong by seeing &quot;Les Miserables&quot;, &quot;My Fair Lady&quot;, &quot;The Lion King&quot; and &quot;We Will Rock You&quot; if you like musicals.<BR><BR>The new play (which name escapes me) with MacCauley Culkin's brother and Tom Hank's son, has also received good reviews.

The new Cirque du Soleil (Saltimbuca) at Royal Albert Hall is getting rave reviews, even from people who hate the circus.

How about the new play opening at the National -- Jerry Springer the Opera?<BR>How could you beat that? LOL<BR>Go to www.officiallondontheatre.com<BR>enter the dates you will be there (you didn't tell us) and you will find all the plays playing then. What are you looking for? Big musicals? Smaller interesting plays?

I second Mamma Mia. I'm taking my parents to see it while we're in London in March. I caught it here in L.A. last year and can't wait to see the original London production.
