Best London shows of 2025 and how to to see them in 2026
From Paddington the Musical to Into the Woods at the Bridge Theatre, My Neighbour Totoro, Oh Mary, and All My Sons, this piece looks back at the shows that defined my theatre year in 2025. I share why these productions left such a strong impression and which of them audiences can still catch in 2026.
A Stunning Into the Woods Revival You Can’t Miss
Into the Woods is a witty, emotionally rich revival at the Bridge Theatre, a clever, spellbinding celebration of Sondheim’s musical genius. In this Into the Woods review, I explore how the show’s intricate score, sharp and heartfelt lyrics, and exceptional cast bring each fairy-tale character vividly to life, delivering humour, depth, and unforgettable theatrical storytelling.
Paddington the Musical is a joyful, marmalade-hearted triumph
Paddington the Musical is a heartwarming, visually inventive addition to the theatre scene — a charming, family-friendly celebration of Michael Bond’s beloved bear. In this Paddington the Musical review, I explore how the show’s seamless animatronic design, catchy and heartfelt songs, and talented cast bring Paddington and his London adventures to life, delivering warmth, humour, and magic for audiences of all ages.
