London theatre tickets buy the best seats for all sell-out shows.

With the uncertainty of public gatherings and coronavirus hanging over theatregoers’ heads, many venues decide to postpone and cancel shows or even shut down entirely.

West End is home to some of the best musicals in London, with sell-outs every night and some of the world’s biggest theatre stars calling the West End stage’ home’. London is second only to Broadway, New York.

The West End represents the world’s most concentrated region of commercial theatre, with more than forty venues putting on up to eight shows a week.

Last-minute tickets are hard to find. Buy theatre tickets for the Shakespeare’s Globe, Almeida, Donmar, The National Theatre & more, and we specialise in last-minute orders.

Theatre listings can be downloaded as a PDF for you. TicketsToSee can source and supply tickets for many West End shows, whether you want tickets for shows and are partial to a bit of melodrama a la Phantom of the Opera or whether you want something altogether more serious, such as any one of the numerous Shakespearian tragedies taking place at London’s Globe theatre.

In addition, we can provide you with a complete list of London theatre shows.

Many theatres sell out months in advance and are very different to get tickets for, but we can help you obtain VIP seats in the Orchestra stalls or the circle, offering a prime view of the action for you and all of your guests.

The current best London musicals playing in the West End are Mama Mia, Wicked, Harry Potter and Lion King, all top London shows.

If you like your theatre to open up a world of glitz and glamour, West End Theatre offers musical delights from various eras. If contemporary musicals are more your forte, try Wicked; it is still a roaring success every night.

In contrast, the award-winning Matilda the Musical and The Book of Mormon have extended runs due to their overwhelming popularity. Plays and dramas with film and TV stars are also regularly on short runs.

Then there are the stalwarts, the enduring favourites breaking records and thrilling audiences even years after their launch.

Les Miserables is the West End’s longest-running musical, having been running for an incredible 28 years, while Phantom of the Opera runs it close, opening just one year later.

The Lion King has been running for decades. These shows are classic, timeless hits with famous songs and unforgettable performances from the cast.

The top shows off Shaftesbury Avenue are also packed with restaurants and hotels that offer perfect vantage points for those spending a weekend experiencing everything the London theatre scene offers.

Small cafes offer excellent lunch deals, and some of the most prestigious restaurants and hotels in the world are present to offer a truly luxurious experience for those with a love of all things theatrical.

Taking a loved one to see a show on the West End is a beautiful way to spend a special occasion or introduce them to a new piece of theatre that they may love;
