London’s West End Travel Guide for Theater Lovers: Shows, Hotels, Bars

Observer: London’s West End is a pilgrimage-worthy destination for anyone who loves the stage, rivaled only by Broadway in New York City. For avid theatergoers, Theatreland presents one-of-a-kind opportunities, like witnessing three-time Oscar nominee and Tony, Emmy and Grammy winner Cynthia Erivo play all 23 roles in Kip Williams’s Dracula and watching Chris Pine in his London stage debut in Ivanov at the Bridge Theatre. For a tried-and-true option, Agatha Christie’s murder mystery The Mousetrap holds the title of the longest-running show in London, having premiered in 1952.
