In this video I’m doing a proper theatre nerd round-up: my top 10 shows I saw in 2025 (plus the ones that just missed the cut), with West End recommendations for what you might want to book in 2026. I chat through why each show made my list, what moments really stood out, and the overall vibe—whether it’s a big sing-your-heart-out musical, something a bit more intimate, or a production that surprised me in the best way. I also share my “most disappointing show of the year” because not everything can be a five-star, no-notes situation. If you love my planner and reading journal content, you’ll know I’m a memory-keeper at heart, and theatre fits right into that. I’m always thinking about what I’ll scrapbook, what I’ll jot down in my theatre journal afterwards, and which shows are worth prioritising when time and budgets are very real. Use this as your watchlist for 2026—especially if you want a mix of reliable favourites and a couple of wildcard picks that are just pure joy.
