The List

Apollo Theatre

The Apollo Theatre is a grade II listed building on Shaftesbury Avenue, originally designed by architect Lewin Sharp for musical theatre, although since its purchase by Nimax Theatres in 2005 it's specialised in comedy and drama, such as the sell-out West End run of Jez Butterworth's Jerusalem. The nearest Tube station is Piccadilly Circus (Bakerloo / Piccadilly) and the nearest railway station is Charing Cross. The bus stops on Shaftesbury Avenue are served by the 1, 14, 19, 22, 24, 29, 38, 55 and 176 routes.

I'm Sorry, Prime Minister

I'm Sorry, Prime Minister

31 Mar 2026 - 18 Jul 2026

From the BAFTA Award-winning co-creator of Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister, Jonathan Lynn, comes the long-awaited final chapter of British political satire - and it is as cunning, cutting, and catastrophically funny as ever. Jim Hacker is back - older, but perhaps not wiser, and still utterly baffled by the real world. Hoping for a quiet retirement at the tranquil Hacker College, Oxford, Jim instead finds himself facing the ultimate modern crisis: cancelled by the college committee. Enter the delightfully devious Sir Humphrey Appleby who has lost none of his love for bureaucracy, Latin phrases, and well-timed obstruction. Can Humphrey outmanoeuvre the meddling students, the Fellowship, and reality itself? Or is it finally time to say, "I’m Sorry, Prime Minister..."? Brimming with razor-sharp wit, nostalgic brilliance, and more double-speak than a press briefing, this is political comedy at its most timeless - and timely. Book now for a night of laughter, legacy, and one last glorious round of red tape, I’m Sorry, Prime Minister.
THE TRUTH a comedy by Florian Zeller

THE TRUTH a comedy by Florian Zeller

9 Jun 2026 - 12 Sept 2026

'A razor-sharp marital comedy' (The Times) ‘A pitch-perfect hit' (The Observer) Two couples. A tangle of secrets. And a truth nobody is ready to face. From Oscar-winning writer Florian Zeller comes ‘a funny and devious must-see’ (The Guardian). The Truth is a wickedly entertaining, sharp, and playful comedy where trust is fragile, loyalty is negotiable, and everyone has something to hide. This star-driven revival of the Olivier-nominated play peels back the lies we tell the people we love, and the ones we tell ourselves... Starring Tony Award-nominated Stephen Mangan returning to the London stage, alongside comedy icon Ardal O’Hanlon (Father Ted, My Hero), Sarah Hadland (Miranda, The Job Lot), and double Olivier Award-winner Janie Dee, The Truth runs in the West End for a strictly limited 14-week season. Gripping, surprising and laugh-out-loud funny, The Truth is a night at the theatre you won't want to miss.
