London shows recommendations

[verybusyspider]

For me - I've never been to a west end show and a friend and I are going for a weekend in London in October. What do you recomend seeing? I'd love to see Lion King but indend to take ds's when they are a little older

Would recommend 'Dirty Dancing' especially in the dress circle - has a gorgeous bar with a magnificent chandalier.

What are you after - a fun, girly night out, a West End spectacular or something a bit deeper.

Wicked is brilliant, the set is spectacular, the storyline is good and the songs are wonderful.

Priscilla Queen of the Desert - I havn't laughed so much in years, fantastic

Legally Blonde - not seen it yet but sounds fun, frothy and a good laugh

Lion King - amazing, good for the kids

We Will Rock You - I enjoyed this but the plot is very thin - almost non existnet but great music, if you like Queen.

Billy Elliot - amazing, funny and heartrending all at once - I defy any mother not to cry during The Letter song.

Sister Act is great - it puts a smile on your face from start to finish.

Les Misrables

Also War Horse or The Railway Children at Waterloo.

I went to watch Billy Elliot and LOVED it!!! Thoroughly recommend it!

Chicago or Le Miserables.

I was debating whether or not to go and see Dirty Dancing, dh doesn't fancy it, I'm not sure as I do.

Think I will go for Legally Blonde next thought I could watch Wicked againa nd again (obviously seeing what my username is).

Anyone seen Love Never Dies?
