Family Theatre London
Published on 24 August 2011
There are shows on offer for mostly all ages however all London theatres state that no babies in arms will be allowed to attend , everyone must have a valid ticket and occupy a seat. Young children are admitted but are not encouraged to attend unless the parent is confident that their child will not distract other members of the audience and accompanying adults will be asked to remove any noisy infants. These rules are to ensure that all customers enjoy the show.
Unfortunately there are no discounts for children, so everyone pays the same price for a ticket. The only discount offered for young people is if they are part of a school group usually consisting of 12 or more students, they will then be offered a reduced rate. Children's prices are typically less however, at attractions such as Madam Tussauds and The London Eye.
As a quick overview of a couple of family shows London has on offer, The Lion King would have to be the most popular children's and family show currently playing in London's Theatreland. It has been running for over 10 years at the Lyceum Theatre delighting children and adults of all ages. Sadly, children under 3 years of age will not be admitted to this show and all children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
So, if none of the above shows tempt you then don't forget the whole thing. London is full of shows for the whole family, so do your family a favour and get online and start searching for Family Theatre London and off you go!
