10 Shows to See Before You Die

Here are 10 shows you must see before you die. Whether you're on a hen do, celebrating a big birthday or just love a great show, these will rock you!

The Chippendales

The original and best! The Chippendales changed the way we thought about male strippers forever. Legions of hen parties have seen the guys strut their stuff. Come on - aren't you a bit curious? Not even a little teensy bit?

Edinburgh Festival Fringe

Ok, so it's a whole festival of shows rather than one, but the organisers call Edinburgh Festival Fringe 'the greatest show on earth'. It's launched the careers of A-list actors, comedians and artists. If you like to expect the unexpected, this one's for you. This year's festival runs from 7-31 August and includes a whopping 3,000+ events.

The Moulin Rouge

Go see a Moulin Rouge show and be totally captivated by the dancers, dazzling lights, colours, music and acrobatics. Intoxicating, lavish, magical - it's a real extravaganza. You've seen the movie, go live it!

Chicago

Sexy, sassy and catchy, Chicago will have you reaching for the gin cocktails and changing your name to Roxy. There's even a Chicago dance lesson for hen parties who want to do the Roaring Twenties theme to the max.

Beyonce

One concert and you'll realise why she's called the Queen of RnB. Bey brings it every time. If you want to go the whole hog, team a show with a Single Ladies dance class and learn the moves to Bey's booty shaking anthem.

Pirates

It might not be Shakespeare at the Globe or as flashy as a Vegas show, but Pirates is definitely one of the shows to see before you die. The whole performance takes place in a giant galleon and features a mad mix of acrobatics, jokes, dancing and music. Over the top action at its bawdiest and best.

Cirque du Soleil

It's a worldwide phenomenon for a reason! Cirque du Soleil will make you gasp. If you possibly can, go see it in Las Vegas.

Wicked

The tale of the Witches of Oz is one of the most watched West End musicals of all time. It's a must-see show that will hold you in its thrall with a potent mix of fabulous costumes, funnies, epic songs, wizardry and wonder.

Kanye West

Love or loathe, you know a Kanye show is going to be jam-packed with surprises.

The Woman in Black

Genuinely spine chilling, this gothic thriller will change the way you feel about live theatre. Real edge of your seat stuff, it'll make even the bravest theatregoer jump!

Blue Man Group

No list of shows to see before you die would be complete without the game changing Blue Man Group. Quirky, creative and a bit bonkers, it's got everything - music, colour, massive lights, humour, science, art, and guys with blue heads getting the crowd to act like big kids. Has to be experienced to be believed!
