London Theatre Shows in May 2025
London is in full bloom by May and so are the theatres, with lots of new openings expected this month. Full details are to be confirmed, but in the meantime, book ahead for some of the best West End shows that have been entertaining crowds for years - Les Miserables is the ultimate rousing musical about war, love and sacrifice, Cabaret brings star-studded performances to the Kit Kat Club, and Witness for the Prosecution is perfect to get the little grey cells working overtime with its tense courtroom setting.
Shakespeare and Bridgerton fans should book to see Jonathan Bailey in Richard II at the Bridge Theatre this month - it’s scheduled to close on 10 May, and Bailey’s performance isn’t one to miss out on.
