If you want an alternative to West End shows with cheaper
tickets, London’s No.1 venue dedicated to international
dance - presenting dance in all forms from contemporary
to flamenco, ballet to hip hop and more.
My favourite performance – Romeo and Juliet.

The museum shows off the history of the Royal Mail and
how it’s been delivering letters and packages to people for
centuries and interesting mail from the first Christmas cards to letters lost in shipwrecks. The real treat of the museum is the chance to ride the Mail Rail, underground tracks that were once used to ship mail all over the city. Kids friendly.
