May in London

May 2026 sees a lot of spectacular new shows in London. Two examples celebrate the wonderful diversity of the performing arts in London. Puccini's masterpiece La Boheme makes a very welcome return to the London Colisseum with the English National Opera whilst at the Peacock Theatre, ZooNation's - Some Like it Hip Hop is the acclaimed and highly entertaining dance-theatre fusion of the Billy Wilder film 'Some Like It Hot' and Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night'! Both performances are available to book now for dates throughout May through our London Theatre Breaks program.
