The Lion King - A Performance for All Ages
The Lion King is truly one of the most memorable visual presentations West End theatre has to offer. It is none other than a spectacular feast for the eyes. Director Julie Taymor has gone beyond conventional theatre to recreate the Serengeti Plains of Africa in such a way that moves the audience in a splendid aura of powerful rhythm. Billy Elliot
A young boy's triumph over hardship and adversity, all for the love of dance.
Billy Elliot tells the story of a boy born in a northern town where men box and work in the mines. Brought up by a single father, without a mother's touch, Billy is enthralled by the grace and wonder of ballet, and secretly hopes to attend the Royal Ballet School. With gritty determination he attempts to prove doubters wrong by going all the way. Mary Poppins
When Mary Poppins arrives at 17 Cherry Tree Lane nothing will ever be the same again.
Disney and Cameron Mackintosh have teamed for this musical based on the stories of Pamela Travers, which have delighted every generation since they first appeared in the 1930s. Is it Jane and Michael Banks who need a nanny? Or is it their parents, George and Winifred who actually need more looking after? Only one thing is certain-after Mary Poppins arrives at 17 Cherry Tree Lane, with her no-nonsense approach to making the right choices in life, nothing will ever be the same again.

The Mousetrap - Agatha Christie's classic whodunnit
The Mousetrap, playing for more than 50 years and still going, is the longest-running murder mystery in the world. A group of travelers are stranded at Monkswell Manor when they learn that a killer is on the loose. As the snow piles up, dead bodies begin to surface. The unsuspecting guests begin to realize that they have a killer among them. Hay Fever - A comedy from Noel Coward
Judith Bliss, star of the London stage, samples the mixed blessings of early retirement with her family.
The Bliss family is eccentric. Judith is a retired actress. David is a novelist. Grown-up children Simon and Sorel live at home. The entire family lives in a melodramatic whirl where reality blurs with performance. Each member of the family invites a guest for the weekend without warning the others. Donkeys' Years
Michael Frayn's classic comedy about a wild class reunion.
Twenty five years after graduation, six former students return to their university college for a reunion dinner. Whilst their lives may have had varying degrees of success, all are connected by a common past. Once locked in college for the night, the graduates begin to relive their youth, and old friendships, feuds - and the much-desired but absurdly proper Master's wife - come tumbling back into the present.....Donkeys' Years

Theatre Shows - Film Remakes
Entirely original shows are becoming scarce - most performances are remakes of films, novels, or TV shows. Some mix and match new storylines with already established ones. In most cases, they are extremely successful and perhaps surpass the original film in terms of popularity.
