    Going to London soon and looking to go see a show.

    Hubby isn't majorly into music so looking for something with a bit of comedy in it maybe? Or something that everyone enjoys whether they like music or not?

    Or has anyone been to any good comedy clubs or something different we could do instead

    Tks in advance

    How about war horse its west end and is supposed to have incredible puppetry effects. For comedies book of Mormon has been highly acclaimed (so much so you may find it hard to get cheap tickets though)

    I've seen both and I could highly recommend them.

    Went to see War Horse in the Grand Canal theatre on Saturday and thought it was amazing. It's a great story and the production and puppetry is fantastic.

    Saw the 39 Steps while I was in New York a few years ago and really enjoyed. Very funny and moves along at such a fast pace.

    Probably a bit late for the original poster but I would certainly recommend The Drowned Man.

    This review describes it better than I could: www .telegraph.co.uk/culture/theatre/theatre-reviews/10186535/The-Drowned-Man-Temple-Studios-review.html

    I'm planning to go again, no two visits are the same.
