London Theatre Shows in July 2024
To mark the start of the summer holidays, there are lots of children’s shows in London in July, including The Lion King, The Gruffalo and, new for 2024, Shrek the Musical. For adults, we recommend escaping to a Greek Island with Mamma Mia! or making a match with Imelda Staunton as she returns to the stage in Hello, Dolly.
July is also the month to soak up the atmosphere at London’s best outdoor theatres. Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre has some fantastic, family-friendly shows including The Secret Garden, or you can enjoy an authentic Shakespearean experience with standing tickets at the Globe Theatre.
Finally, don’t miss the last few weeks of two very different but acclaimed shows: A View from the Bridge starring Dominic West, and quirky rom-com musical Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York).
