The Rep's 2024 London Tour

DATES: May 25th - June 2nd, 2024

Join us for a fantastic tour of London's vibrant theatre and cultural scenes! Your tour guide will be The Rep's Managing Director, Danny Williams, whose insights and company make the trip a truly unforgettable experience.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Nine Performances. From classic theatre to the best new plays of the season, enjoy the best of London theatre. Specific shows TBD. 

  • The State We’re In. An in-depth look at the country you are visiting – the politics and the social issues of the day. Since we were last together, are we now living in a very different world? Post-pandemic, post-Brexit, we are joined by a political journalist or media commentator to make sense of it all and to review the important matters of the day. 

  • Excursions to the Beautiful English Countryside. Including the National Portrait Gallery, Welford Park, and Richmond. More details to come!
