During the Easter break, I enjoyed a couple of nights in London, Thursday to Saturday.
On the Thursday we went up to the West End and failed to get tickets for Les Mis. Well, we could’ve got a pair but not for the £200 each they wanted.
Anyway, we went next door to the Gielgud Theatre and got a couple of decent seats for £50 each. The musical was Opening Night starring Sheridan Smith. Fucking woeful! Many in our area didn’t return after the interval it was so crap. I decided the second half couldn’t be as bad as the first. I was wrong!
What’s the feeling in Theatre Land that it’s been cut short by a couple of months. Is this usual or do they normally persevere?
