"My one rule of theatre is that while it's nice to travel to see shows out of town, there's never any point in having FOMO because everything that's actually any good will probably end up coming to London anyway. And March 2026 certainly proves the hell out of that rule, as we're treated to transfers of the most acclaimed Broadway show of last year."
"What a joy it is to live in an era in which Robert Icke and Jamie Lloyd - arguably the two most exciting mainstream theatre directors alive - are basically now in charge of West End celebrity Shakespeare. Following Lloyd's superlative last year, Icke picks up the baton again with his own take on Romeo & Juliet, this one with Stranger Things starlet Sadie Sink as one half of the doomed teenage power couple."
London's theatre scene in March 2026 features exceptional productions across multiple venues. Robert Icke directs Romeo & Juliet with Sadie Sink and Noah Jupe, continuing the trend of acclaimed directors helming West End Shakespeare. The month includes transfers of Broadway's most acclaimed show John Proctor is the Villain, Michael Sheen's first Welsh National Theatre production, and shows from Bristol and Leicester. The National Theatre presents a major production of Maxim Gorky's Summerfolk. These offerings demonstrate that significant theatrical productions eventually reach London, eliminating the need for audiences to travel elsewhere to experience quality theatre.
