Southwark Playhouse
While there’s been much controversy about Tanya Burr’s casting in Confidence at the Southwark Playhouse, this is a pretty fail safe venue. With consistently wonderful plays and musicals and two spaces – there is something for everyone. Confidence plays from 23rd May. Pippin and Bring It On (written by Lin Manuel Miranda of Hamilton and In The Heights fame) also play there this year.
Menier Chocolate Factory
Barnum plays until the 3rd March, after which Kiss Of The Spiderwoman plays from the 10th March. After being home to several West End transfers, it can be fairly certain that this is a high quality venue where good things happen.
Union Theatre
Carmen plays through February – a new musical theatre production of the well known Opera. A beautiful if really small venue, and more exciting things are happening there every year.
The Young Vic
The Young Vic have a series of exciting shows including Winter and The Inheritance before a summer full of emotive Broadway Hit Fun Home.
