Annie

The sun will come out on Black Friday for those keen to see the stage adaptation of this classic film. Meera Syal takes over from Craig Revel-Horwood to play the horrendous Miss Hannigan from November 26 and it’s sure to be a star performance. Buy tickets

Thriller

A must-see for all Michael Jackson fans: this dazzling stage celebration of his work features all his hits and more moonwalking than you could shake a pair of white socks at. With savings off up to £35, we think you’ll agree that’s not Bad (sorry). Buy tickets

Venus in Fur

See royalty on stage for half the usual price - well, Game of Thrones royalty. Natalie Dormer, who also played Anne Boleyn in The Tudors, is currently treading the boards in this dark comedy, directed by Patrick Marber. The play follows one night when an actress turns up for an unexpected audition at a director’s apartment, and in the words of our critic Fiona Mountford, “it’s always a pleasure to see an actress giving a male director the run-around.” Buy tickets
