Posted: 2/2/05 at 3:06pmIf you haven't already seen it, I would have to say Les Miz. I saw it this past summer in the West End and it was incredible!

Depending on your taste I'd say Jerry Springer the Opera, David Badella and Alison Jiear are worth the ticket price alone.. if you can get a ticket...
The Producers at Theatre Royal, Drury lane, Lee Evans is doing a lovely job...
And Mary Poppins...

Posted: 2/3/05 at 7:35pmI'd say the London Phantom production is stronger than ever now. Go see it with John Owen Jones! He leaves feb 26th.

Posted: 2/3/05 at 7:57pmJerry shuts on the 19th, tickets are real hard to get, if you wanna try, use seetickets through the website (jerryspringertheopera.com) it is worth it, because it's superb!! I loved it so much, i'm even wearing my talk to the hand, talk to the ass t-shirt from the show!

Posted: 2/3/05 at 8:12pmDon't, under any circumstances, see MARY POPPINS. See WOMAN IN WHITE or GRAND HOTEL

Posted: 2/3/05 at 8:14pmSee Les Miz. Then again I love it and would see it everyother day if I could. If it was up to me, I'd like to see Woman in White, haven't seen it though

Les Mis or Phantom if you're looking for something "classic" broadway. Not "golden age" material, just not a risk.
Mary Poppins for something light and probably fun and colorful.
Blood Brothers or Woman in White for something more contemporary and new.
Producers for a funny and most-likely well done night at the theatre with some good songs.

Posted: 2/3/05 at 10:28pmThere is actually a westendtheatreworld.com exactly like bww. I sweat when I stumbled across it, I thought I was in some creepy parallel universe...and in a sense I WAS. And cue the Twilight Zone music.
