I want to watch a show in London this weekend with my four year old - any suggestions?

Question

We have never been the the theater together and I wanted her to get to watch a show. I can only think of Lion king but what are some other kid friendly shows she can watch.

Answer 1

It really depends on your daughter. all shows in London are long and she might get bored and wriggly like I did (and I'm 18) The shows are really good but after 2 hours you want to get up and move and do something else. Lion King is a really good show though so you will both enjoy it loads.  

Answer 2

Lion king is a good bet, but there are loads of other really great shows going on in London at the moment. Check events listings for other ideas, I use:

Also, catching the matinee rather than evening show might be a good idea, as there will be loads of other parents with their kids there so you don't need to worry if she does get fidgety or noisy:)

Answer 3

wicked is good for children, it's the story prior to wizard of Oz and how the green witch the lion/tin man etc came along. It's magnificent

Answer 4

My son is 4 and he's been to pantomimes which were 2 hours long and he enjoyed the theatre so much he didn't care how long the performance was! I want to take him to London to see Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Joseph, High School Musical...all of which I think are still on show.
