Theatre Breaks to Priscilla Queen of the Desert and West End Live
Priscilla Queen of the Desert the musical continues to be a popular show for London Theatre Breaks and I'm not sure this video from West End Live really does the show justice but it does give a flab=vour of the outrageous costumes and catchy tunes.

Theatre Breaks in the Springtime
Springtime weather is almost perfect for theatre breaks in London.
The days are fine outdoors with little chance of too much rain and the theatres themselves are comfortablly acclimatised.

Lighter evenings make London theatre breaks attractive too.

Enjoy London Theatre
Enjoy is a play by Alan Bennett, one of theatre’s greatest observers of the English way of life.
Written in 1980, it's set in his home town of Leeds where an ageing couple are living in the city’s last back-to-back. With the demolition of the area in progress, Wilf and Connie are soon to be re-housed in a brand new maisonette with a waste disposal unit and non-slip vinyl flooring! When a sociologist comes to observe them in their daily life, normality takes a decidedly atypical turn…
With its cast of fifteen extraordinary characters and a stunning visual denouement, Enjoy is an absolute theatrical treat.
Alan Bennett has been a household name for more than forty years. His numerous plays include The History Boys, one of the biggest theatrical sensations of recent years, Habeas Corpus, Forty Years On, Single Spies, The Madness of George III, Talking Heads and The Lady in the Van.
