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.

Synopsis
Hapless single-dad Grey is in a rut.
Teenage daughter Silva packs him off to revive his rockstar dreams, successfully auditioning for 'Nick & the Rhythmics' only to realise … he's actually signed up for an All-male Rhythmic Gymnastics troupe.
Against the odds these burly blokes make it as far as the World Championships - twirling their 'ribbons of fire' - and along the way Grey finally learns to commit to life.
Calendar Girls meets The Full Monty in this joyous new British musical.
Like the music video "Got Your Back", created to accompany the release of the album, the full production will also feature BSL integrated choreography from Deaf men Dancing's Mark Smith, as well as captions throughout all performances, to make the show accessible for D/deaf and hard of hearing audiences.
