I have Phantom of the Opera and Pride: The Musical booked, which are within the next few weeks. I’ll also buy tickets for Operation Mincemeat and Owain and Henry soon, which are later on in the year. What about you?

Our local drama group just did a twist on an Agatha Christie mystery. It was absolutely excellent.

Saw To Kill a Mockingbird last week and it was incredible. Best stage play I’ve seen in years - wonderful adaptation, beautifully acted and staged.

Theatremama · 09/03/2026 23:08

We’ve seen Back To The Future and Legally Blonde this year. We have tickets to see Waitress, Mean Girls, Mrs Doubtfire and Paddington. Love a night out at the theatre 😊.

I’d like to see the new Paddington musical, but unless it tours, won’t happen, London prices for decent seats are way above what I’d pay, just booked good seats for Billy Elliot in Sunderland, they were expensive enough but I probably couldn’t buy one ticket in London for the cost of two in the regional theatres

If you look for Paddington much later in the year (or next year) you'll still get an excellent seat for less than £100.

lifeturnsonadime · 09/03/2026 22:49

I saw Arcadia last week.

Have The Tempest and The Cherry Orchard booked in Stratford upon Avon. I'm quite tempted by Middlemarch in 2 parts.

Want to see Les Miserables later this year as I'm currently doing the read along.

I think DD wants to see Beetlejuice and also possibly Six.

I have booked tickets for Annie and also Paddington the musical. Both are for the kids really. One will love Annie ans just she and I are going to that. I am hoping everyone will like Paddington. I have heard it is good.

It’s amazing. I’m so excited for you!

MargaretThursday · 09/03/2026 22:33

TragicMuse · 09/03/2026 22:13

I’ve got Mark Gatiss in Arturo Ui at the RSC in Stratford next month, Gary Oldman in Krapp’s Last Tape in May and Tilda Swindon in Man To Man in September, both at the Rpyal Court.

Very excited about all of them!

TheatreTraveller · 09/03/2026 21:57

We've just been to see Matilda last month, and MJ the Musical a couple of weeks beforehand.

Seeing Percy Jackson this week, then Lion King in London at Easter, later in the year I have Barnum, Six and Moulin Rouge booked. Hoping to book Burlesque and Hunger Games. It's so expensive for us to get down to London though.

I've remembered a £50 theatre token that has been in my inbox for two years - I've booked matinee of Into the Woods and evening performance of One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest ON THE SAME DAY. buoyant with the beauty of Sondheim, then brought right back down to earth with the bleakness of Cuckoos Nest, but I can't resist Michelle Gomez as Ratched.

I’ve been fancying Billy Elliot and Hamilton too. One day, one day I will see them!

Show quote history

I’ve seen Hamilton 3 times and would see it again tomorrow! It’s excellent!

We’ve got La Fille Mal Gardee and Dracula at Sadlers Wells booked for June but nothing else. I quite fancy Billy Elliot and Hamilton and definitely Paddington which I hope DH will book for my birthday 🤞

I’d love to see Blood Brothers again as it’s one of my all time favourites

Just been to see Headlong’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream at Bristol Old Vic - set in winter and bonkers but great.

I went today too! Very good, wasnt sure about ending tho?

ClaredeBear · 07/03/2026 21:03

Saw Prima Facie just recently (amazing!)) and All My Sons. I was seriously underwhelmed by Brian Cranston’s type casting.

ClaredeBear · 07/03/2026 21:01

Paddington, The Red Shoes, Barnum, Annie, Cats and Owain and Henry. I’d love to see Jesus Christ Superstar, especially with the new kings!

I saw Prima Facie in Canterbury a couple of days ago. Jodie Comer was wonderful.

We have a comedy night coming up and DH has just booked Inter Alia for a couple of months' time. I also want to book something fun to take DD and her BFF to as an end-of-primary-school celebration

Theatreobsessed · 07/03/2026 20:16

Have so many booked this year! Harold fry (seen it once already and it was great), ballad lines, avenue Q, starlight express, Beetlejuice, Paddington as well as various others!

musicals are my favourite thing so any ‘spare’ money tends to go on trips

Globules · 07/03/2026 20:00

Saw a local am dram production of Come from Away last weekend. Oh my word. The quality was on a par with the west end version, which I saw twice.

I've got tickets for
The Last Five Years
Rocky Horror
Dracula
Jesus Christ Superstar

And I'll be faster finger first for Ham tickets for the summer.

inmyfashion · 07/03/2026 19:59

In the next couple of weeks - Summefolk at the NT, American Psycho at the Almeida and John Proctor is the Villain at the Royal Court. Particularly excited for the last one!

Really want to book for the Game of Thrones play at the RSC, I think it will be my last play before I give birth so want to make sure I see it if possible.

HannahinHampshire · 07/03/2026 19:57

Going to The Red Shoes and To Kill a Mockingbird in Southampton this month. Have seen Dear England, Miss Saigon and Fawlty Towers this year (also all in Southampton). Always loved theatre but ex would never go with me so it’s been lovely to get back into the habit again!

I have a few booked mostly with my dd(s)

Waitress
Greatest Showman
Heathers
Legally Blond
Paddington

my dd both want to see Hamilton again with Leslie Odom Jr but I’m guessing will be pricey and we only saw it last summer.

We loved Waitress!
