Theatres and coronavirus


From Monday 19 July, theatres in London are allowed to operate without capacity limits.


And all legal restrictions imposed by the government will be removed.


However, most theatres will still be following procedures such as electronic ticketing etc and may require masks to be worn.


Note that some performances have been cancelled where cast or staff have tested positive and need to isolate.


We advise checking theatre websites for the latest information and what you can expect when visiting.



Be More Chill

Playing until 5 Sep 2021

Shaftesbury Theatre

Just your atypical love story - a guy (he wants to fit in), a girl (she wants to be noticed), and the supercomputer inside the guy's head that tells him what to do (it wants to take over the world!).

Show details

Synopsis


With a score full of addictive earworms and a universal, sci-fi tinged story about the competing voices in all of our heads, this "fantastically funny" (The Guardian) musical "fizzes with feel-good energy" (The Stage) and features "an absolutely terrific young British cast" (The Telegraph).


It's just your atypical love story - a guy (he wants to fit in), a girl (she wants to be noticed), and the supercomputer inside the guy's head that tells him what to do (it wants to take over the world!).
