Wicked, Lion King, Phantom of the Opera or I think there is going to be a new production of Cinderella.

Don’t take her to The Rocky Horror Show. We invited one of our daughter’s friends when she was about that age to see that. She loved it but we spent all the time wondering what on earth her parents would think.

I suppose it will depend where you live and what’s on at the time I’ve heard six is very good and wicked but if she likes frozen ? Lion king is absolutely superb for any age . Hairspray , dirty dancing and beauty and the beast are all on here up north . I’m sure she’ll enjoy any -it’s the experience of the live theatre isn’t it !

You possibly want the theatre trip to be a surprise but to save yourself a lot of money and angst I would ask her what she would like to see. Hopefully you will be able to get her a list of what will be available.

Wicked

She might want to see Frozen if she was a big fan of the film; the theatre adaptation is popular with young adults.

Is Wicked still on anywhere? That’s very popular too.

My granddaughter will be 13 in December. When her brother turned 13 I took him to a very expensive restaurant as he is quite a 'foodie', My granddaughter loves literature and drama so I thought I would take her to the theatre - does anyone have any recommendations? She mentioned Six - apparently it is very good but not sure if it will be on then. I see that they are doing Frozen on the stage - but my son thinks that she has grown out of that - although she told me categorically that it was the best film that had ever been made.
