New Wimbledon Theatre

Touring productions love to stop off at the New Wimbledon Theatre, so much so, that the theatre ends up hosting some 45 productions a year. The West End’s big hitters – ‘Calendar Girls’, ‘The Harder They Come’, ‘Evita’ – usually make a visit, while the theatre’s Christmas panto draws the biggest crowds. If you fancy a bit of boo and hiss, expect a suburban cheese fest come December with guest stars such as Ross Kemp and John Barrowman, oh, and Pamela Anderson – a busty booking that helped make 2010’s ‘Aladdin’ a box office record-breaker for the 1500-seat New Wimbledon.
