"Love the theatre, planning on going to see a couple of things in the west end when we go later in the year although not much I want to see at the moment.
Very favourite is blood brothers"
A good friend of mine played in blood brothers in the west end quite a few years ago. It is excellent  |

Last thing I saw was Cats. I'd wanted to see it for years, so was first in the queue for this run.
Going to see Gypsy this weekend. Not really sure about it, but my sister wanted to see it and it ends soon, so it's Gypsy instead of Les Mis. |

"Do most people catch things In London now then? Or are they still hitting local theatres? There are some great tours out at the moment! "
I like the west end for atmosphere but enjoy local, last thing we saw was full month on tour

I do love a bit of live theatre but it's been a while since my last visit. Perhaps a visit needed to something soon even if it's a local AmDram.
Faves are Miss Saigon, South Pacific, Sound of Music, Phantom, J C Superstar, Beauty & The Beast, Lion King, Mary Poppins, Jamaica Inn, Rebecca, Othello, & anything with great dancing. |

Les Mis...now you're talking!
I think it's perhaps the most profound musical ever written. I really enjoyed the film adaptation too - notwithstanding the somewhat lacklustre performance given by Russell Crowe. |

Gypsy is what I want to see too. The film gypsy was my absolute favourite as a child as my mum watched it a lot. My mum was a big fan of burlesque and she also loved drag acts like Danny La Rue. It's where I got it from |

I go to the theatre quite often.
The last play i saw was Cerano De Bergerac.
I am off to see a play with a Liverpool twist in a small theatre here.
In August I will make my yearly pilgrimage to Chester Open Air Theatre to see Romeo and Juliet.
I want to see Kinky Boots but have to go to London for that. |

I work in theatre and education. I went to drama school for my degree and specialise in lighting and sound and through my job I have travelled the world. Mind you the pay is crap in general for the hours you work |

Love going to the theatre, hate theatre seats. To small,not enough leg room and knees are aching by halfway through the first half, which takes the enjoyment out of it.
Worst seats ever were in the opera house in Prague. We went to see Aida, and I was so uncomfortable after the the first twenty mins I wanted to leave.
Opera was great though |
