Might be going to London, just me and DD (5yo) in April on a Saturday. Have to see if I dare brave it on my own with her!

Was thinking of matbe going to see a show, but not really sure which sure or where. Or where the best place to buy tickest are?

I did think of Mary Poppins as it is DD's favourite film, but only tickets I can find available are £59 each, which makes it quite an expensive day out!

Any recommendations of child friendly shows?
Where is best place to buy tickets?

TIA!

Lion King ticket price also appears to be £59. Is this the standard price for London theatres. Have onlly been once before and I didn't get tickets. It is a lot cheaper to go to the theatre up North!

Not tried direct.

Are you planning on staying overnight?
If so try a local coach tour place.
I have been to a few shows with hotel and coah travel included, and they have been really good value, about £129 pp.
Always nice hotles and good seats.

No overnight stay necessary. We will be staying at BIL/SIL's house in Hertfordshire and going in on train.
