- Thriller – The obvious choice for all Michael Jackson fans, follow his career and enjoy the well-known songs.
- Six – A modern retelling of the stories of the wives of Henry VIII, so it’s topical because that man had a few weddings under his belt.

Can you get theatre ticket discounts for hen parties?
Yes – one of the main benefits of being a large hen party going to the theatre together means that you are likely to be able to get your hands on some prized discounted tickets!
Many ticket sellers offer discounts on group bookings of 5 people or more, the larger the group, the bigger the discount.
