Theater for a 4 year old

Does anyone have any recommendations for theater shows for a 4 year old girl?

I am thinking of booking the The Snowman but would love other recommendations for London shows.

Thanks

What about a panto instead. Very interactive with kids

Other than that I know The tiger who came to tea was doing the rounds at one bit, don't know if it still is.

Stickman (possibly on over Christmas in London) as it includes Father Christmas.
If any of these are on, they suit the age 4 children very well.
The Gruffalo.
The Tiger that Came To Tea
Aliens Love Underpants

Possibly a musical such as Aladdin? Quite long though so depends on the ability not to fidget!

I have seen all of those with a small child in tow & can recommend all of them...

Check out the polka theatre. It’s wind in the willows at the minute but they may abb! other stuff too.

Otherwise Aladdin, the lion king, Matilda, Snow White, room on the broom and Disney on ice all seem to be on in London if any of them might be enjoyed.

I've never been to a pantomime, good thought.

Thank you all for the suggestions.

Not sure if it's still going, but my granddaughters were spellbound by the Angelina Ballerina ballet a few years ago, when they were 2 and a half and 4 and a half. Grandma was impressed too. It was a 'relaxed' performance, so not silent, and two 30 minute acts, perfect length. Most of the audience were wearing princess dresses, but mine was at the dry cleaners.
