London Theatre Shows in July 2025
There are lots of children’s shows in London in July for the summer holidays, including The Lion King, The Smeds and The Smoos and new musical 101 Dalmatians. For the grown ups, Nye starring Michael Sheen returns to the National Theatre. No hols booked this year? Why not escape to a Greek Island with Mamma Mia! or go stateside with The Great Gatsby.
New openings include the UK premiere of Sing Street at Lyric Hammersmith and closing this month is My Master Builder starring Ewan McGregor - don’t miss your chance to see this Hollywood Legend on stage for the first time in over 17 years!
July is also great for soaking up the atmosphere at London’s best outdoor theatres. Regent’s Park has fantastic, family-friendly shows every year, or get Shakespearean with standing tickets at the Globe Theatre.
