Layton Williams's Collection

A fearless, electric performer with a razor-sharp eye for a great night out. His picks skew bold, joyful, and high-energy: the shows with real momentum, big feeling, and a little edge.

CATS

Ages 5+
from £18

Open-air theatre + Drew McOnie choreography + CATS = I’m sold. This will be wildly different from the Broadway ballroom version, which makes it even more exciting. Summer theatre magic incoming. Until it rains... "Because Jellices can't and Jellices won't” !

Titanique

90%

Ages 14+
from £25

This cult hit is outrageous, hilarious, and packed with powerhouse vocals. A camp comedy night out that doesn’t take itself seriously, like at all. I know I'm biased with this one but sending love to my U.K. huns who are smashing it into their second year running now.

Oh, Mary!

Ages 14+
from £33

Camp, queer, and completely unexpected. Mason Alexander Park leads a small but mighty cast with razor-sharp comedy and a finale that’s a total showstopper. If you want something bold and different from usual West End bits and bobs, I believe this is it. If you're easily offended and don't like out there comedy maybe skip this one.

Cabaret

92%

Ages 12+
from £35

Still one of the best nights out in London. Sexy, slick, and emotionally devastating. The immersive Kit Kat Club experience starts the moment you walk in. Be sure to arrive early, grab a drink, explore, and soak in the preshow performances. It’s not just a musical; it’s a full on event from as soon as you walk into the Club / Theatre.

Kinky Boots The Musical

Ages 8+
from £15

Banger after banger. Cyndi Lauper’s score alone is worth the ticket. It’s joyful, uplifting, and packed with heart. Leave expectations at the door and let your eyes explore.

Avenue Q

Ages 13+
from £28

A show I've always wanted to see but has never been in the West End whilst I've been knocking about. Naughty, clever, and hilariously relatable, with incredible puppetry and songs you’ll be humming for days. If you want something cheeky and a little different, this is your show.
