Musicals
The triple-threat of music, dance and drama and another staple of the London theatre scene. There are plenty of musicals on the West End, but it’s the Off West End where you’ll find the new stuff, so don’t be afraid to jump in!

Review: Operation Mincemeat, Riverside Studios
Joyful slapstick parody musical about a WW2 intelligence operation, romping through so many genres you’ll get dizzy.
