Theatre is the new rock and roll. This year the West End is attracting a galaxy of extraordinary star names to the London stage, from Sex in the City’s Sarah Jessica Parker to Cara Delevingne and Tom Holland, yes Spider-Man himself. Look in one direction and Doctor Who star Matt Smith is doing Ibsen; look in another and Beverley Knight is about to light up the stage in Sister Act.
Want to watch the stars of Succession live? Well Sarah Snook will be doing a solo take on The Picture of Dorian Gray and Brian Cox is starring in Long Day’s Journey into Night (with Patricia Clarkson). Or how about national TV treasures Keeley Hawes and Sheridan Smith? They’re both coming to the West End too (in different shows).
