Not to alarm you, but you’ve got a matter of weeks, if not days, to secure your seats for some of the West End’s best shows. From Bryan Cranston in Arthur Miller’s classic All My Sons to Olivier-winning smash hit Back To The Future The Musical, there are lots of big departures coming up, and you won’t want to be left wishing you’d seen them while you had the chance. Here are all the last chance opportunities you’ll want to take advantage of in the West End this month.

Final performance 7 Mar, The Harold Pinter Theatre

Billy Crudup and Denis Gough star in this Western blockbuster at the Harold Pinter Theatre, which brings the 4-time Oscar winning 1952 film to the stage. Against a ticking clock, Will Kane and Amy Fowler face a major decision – begin a new life together elsewhere, or stay in town and take a stand against returning outlaw Frank Miller?

Mrs President

Final performance 8 Mar, Charing Cross Theatre

When Mary Lincoln goes to the original celebrity photographer Matthew Brady, they have conflicting ideas about who’s really in charge of the shoot… Keala Settle (The Greatest Showman) gives an unforgettable performance as Lincoln’s widow, in a show that makes a strong case for the fact that Mary deserves to be remembered more kindly.

Arcadia

Final performance 21 Mar, The Old Vic

Genius unfolds across centuries in Tom Stoppard’s masterful reflection on discovery, truth and passion. Witty and affecting, Arcadia follows a teenage prodigy, the adults around her failing to hide their passions, and the scholars chasing their ghosts hundreds of years later. Carrie Cracknell directs this stunning revival – catch it in its final weeks.

Back To The Future The Musical

Marty McFly in Back To The Future at the Adelphi Theatre

Final performance 12 Apr, the Adelphi Theatre

The Olivier Award-winning Best New Musical is finally flying away from the Adelphi Theatre in April, and trust us when we say you’ll want to see it before it goes. Whether you’re a fan of the original film or Marty McFly’s story is totally new to you, Back To The Future The Musical is a magical theatregoing experience, taking you on a race against (and through) time to rectify the past and secure the presence, featuring both original music and beloved classics from the 1985 film.
