Theatre packages London

Looking at bringing my 13 year old daughter to London in January for her birthday, its for one night, would a package be easier and cheaper, or should I do it all seperately, would like recommondations as to where to get the best deals or which shows and hotels would suit her age group

Wicked, Wicked, Wicked!! Don't know any teenager that hasn't loved it. Could be done as a day trip if you booked a matinee...8am Ryanair into Gatwick. Gatwick Express into Victoria. Shopping and lunch around Victoria, Wicked matinee, dinner at Il Posto (lovely Italian near the theatre) then Gatwick Express from Victoria back to the airport in time for the 9pm flight.

Billy Elliot is across the road from Wicked and is also good for teenagers..a bit of language but there are kids in it so I wouldn't worry.

Hairspray if you want something central and Legally Blonde opens in December but tickets for that might be hard to come by.

Packages won't tend to have the popular shows, you'll get deals on the shows that aren't selling so well and have been open for ages.

It would be cheaper to do it on your own. More control.

We booked our Mamma Mia tickets though http://www.delfontmackintosh.co.uk/ and collected them at the Box Office.

Loads of cheap flights and have a look at lastminute.ie for hotels for the night.

i booked hotel and tickets thru [broken link removed] last year and found them reasonable enough.
