As previously announced on these pages, the Royal Opera House will be hosting the prestigious Olivier Awards on 15 April. The time has already come, however, for theatre fans to have their say and decide on London`s favourite long-running show of the past year.

The lines were opened at the weekend on BBC Radio 2 by legendary British actress and national treasure Barbara Windsor, and this year`s award will be presented at the star-studded ceremony by those behind the winner of the 2011 prize, We Will Rock You.

The first round of voting closes on 4 March, at which point the initial batch of 16 nominees – which includes classics like The Phantom of the Opera, Mamma Mia! and The Lion King – will be cut down to four. They will then compete for the coveted accolade in the second and final round.

If you love the West End, why not look up London theatre breaks today and take a trip to help you decide which show to vote for?
