Looking for London shows for families? Whether you're after theatre for toddlers, performances for older children or family-friendly musicals, these magical kids’ shows will enchant and delight young audience members.
This collaboration from Disney and Rockerfeller Productions has already scooped five-star reviews in New York and Chicago. Now the Hundred Acre Wood comes to the London stage. Life-sized puppets play Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Kanga and friends as they search for honey, play with Christopher Robin and find Heffumps and Weasels. With the Sherman Brothers' classic, Grammy-winning score along with A.A Milne's original songs, this new musical promises to introduce a new generation to the affable charm of Pooh Bear. At 65 minutes long, the show is ideal for younger children who couldn't sit through a full West End production.
