London theatre offers something for everyone — world-famous musicals, powerful plays, comedies, family-friendly favourites and limited-run productions that can sell quickly. Whether you are visiting London, planning a special night out, or simply looking for a great evening activity, seeing a live show is one of the best experiences the city has to offer.
To make it easier to find what you are looking for, we have listed current London theatre shows in an A–Z format. This allows you to browse quickly, search for a specific title, or discover new shows you may not have considered.
If you already know what type of theatre you prefer, a good approach is to narrow your choice by style. Musicals are ideal if you want big entertainment, memorable songs and impressive staging. Plays are perfect if you prefer story-led theatre with strong performances and a more dramatic or comedic focus.
If you are booking for a weekend or peak dates such as school holidays, it is worth checking availability early, as popular performances can sell quickly. Where seat selection is available, using the seating plan can help you find the best option for your budget and preferred view.
