THEATRE, POP/CLASSICAL CONCERTS, BALLET, OPERA, MUSICALS

ENTERTAINING LONDON has built an outstanding reputation over the past seven years as THE top social / theatre club in London, unmatched not only for the sheer diversity of West End, off West End Shows, Ballet, Opera, Musicals, Pop/Classical concerts selected at heavily discounted ticket prices (often half price and sometimes 85% off the Box Office price!), but also for the equally important social aspect of our theatre nights out! The majority of our theatre/concert events are attended by 20 - 25 Entertaining London members, sometimes up to 35, and we usually meet up for pre-show and/or post show drinks/food. We also procure coveted tickets for many top productions and pop concerts which are otherwise sold out to the public, (Madonna, U2, Kylie Minogue, Party in the Park, Lionel Ritchie, ELton John, Capital Christmas Live are some examples).

When enquiring about joining an arts or theatre club, please do double check that all the theatre events are properly Hosted and usually attended by at least 15 - 25 members so that you will also enjoy the social aspect of theatre nights out. Entertaining London ensures that all our discounts and savings are passed onto our members and is therefore, without question, the best value and most popular theatre club in London. This is reflected in the great attendances at our theatre/concert events. Some of our prices and attendances are listed below.
