Common questions
The best place to start is our cheap tickets page, where we round up the West End shows with the lowest prices. Right now you can catch Mamma Mia! from £18, Kinky Boots from £19 and Matilda from £23. For the lowest prices, book early and look out for midweek matinees, which are almost always cheaper than weekend evenings.
For families, The Lion King, Matilda and Paddington The Musical are firm favourites, with Oliver! and My Neighbour Totoro also great for younger children. Check the age guidance on each show page - most theatres welcome children but do not admit under-3s.
Yes, often. Browse our shows page, choose the production you would like to see, and click Book tickets to check live availability for your dates. Same-day tickets are frequently available, but to be sure of the best seats we recommend booking in advance.
Most West End shows run between 2 and 3 hours including an interval. Plays tend to be shorter, around 90 minutes to 2 hours, sometimes without an interval. Running times are listed on each show page so you can plan your evening accordingly.
The West End is London's equivalent of Broadway - the heartland of commercial theatre in the UK, centred around the Theatreland district of the West End. Many productions transfer between the two, but each has its own distinct shows, stars, and character. Tickets in London are often better value than their New York counterparts.
Covent Garden, Soho, and the Strand put you within walking distance of most theatres. Leicester Square and Charing Cross are the most central tube stops for Theatreland. If you are travelling from outside London, St Pancras and Victoria both have fast rail links and are a short ride away.
