The ticket prices for some shows are so ridiculous right now and aren't accessible whatsoever.
How can people justify charging the public ยฃ225 during a cost of living crisis?
So sad to hear the news of Robin Windsor's passing. An incredibly talented performer who has died far too young. Thoughts are with his loved ones ๐๏ธ
I did it! ๐ I explored Bath on my own for 3 HOURS. I didn't have a panic attack, I didn't get flustered and I loved the spontaneity of the entire trip! ๐๐

I genuinely don't think there's a better feeling than watching Harry Potter โก. Even after all this time it brings me such comfort and joy to watch โฅ๏ธ
Things I've managed to do recently which 5 months I couldn't because of my anxiety:
โ๏ธ Attend a blogger event on my own (I've managed two!)
โ๏ธ Sitting right in the middle of a row in the theatre.
โ๏ธ Dine in a busy restaurant
โ๏ธ Get through my morning commute on the bus.
One of our writers was attacked on her way home after reviewing a performance in London last night. Fortunately she's ok and had a plus one with her but we want people to remain vigilant at all times x
Let's just remember theatre is inclusive to everyone, not just a specific group. It doesn't matter if you've seen a show once or 10 times, your contribution and love for a show is valid at any level โบ๏ธ
INTERVIEW GUESTS!
I'm dedicating the whole month of May to interviews with neurodivergent and disabled people in the theatre industry. So whether you work backstage, perform, or even work in an organisation committed to championing work from these communities, get in touch!
Don't presume that because someone has success they've got it all. Kate Spade's passing is a reminder to open your eyes that Mental Health is not invisible. We all need to reach out a little further and keep ourselves safe. โฅ๏ธ
Let's discuss, what are your thoughts on these ticket prices? ๐๏ธ
If you don't live in London, do these prices make it difficult for you to purchase tickets?
I've woken up to 10K followers, thanks for the continuous support and love โค๏ธ

My standing ticket cost me ยฃ44 and it meant you could get up and close to every bit of action from this show - my anxiety managed to make it through it all too! The atmosphere in that room is electric!
Said goodbye to 14 Gladstone Street today ๐ . We've spent 5 wonderful years here with the best landlord we could have asked for. I'm going to miss this place and the gorgeous village, it is a wonderful place! ๐งกโจ
You don't have to be a "royalist" to be concerned by The Queen. She is a mother, a grandmother and a great-grandmother at the end of the day. Sending her lots of love โค๏ธ

๐ Dance/Sing your heart out

For the second year running we're not star-rating pantomimes, for a lot of reasons really but mainly because this is the main source of income for some theatres and we don't want to pit them against one another.
Hey
@PaulTaylorMills
, I know you're busy closing a show and getting a new one open, but how long does it really take for somebody to individually address letters like this or maybe even take the time to talk to people as, I don't know, human beings?
Hello
@ComeFromAwayUK
friends, the opening of the UK tour is nearly here. It will be missing a very important person there as it opens on Friday so me and
@beyondcurtain12
would like to invite whoever is there to join us to raise a toast after the show. ๐ฅ
I'd really appreciate it if theatre companies were mindful of websites like ours, we do it in our spare time, with no income and so to be told our review isn't what you wanted because it's not a 4 star like the one other review published.. you want us to delete it.

I've made the decision on behalf of my team not to star-rate pantomimes this season.
It's going to be a really tough winter for pantomimes due to the cost of living - instead, we will continue to highlight the great offers to enjoy theatre & finding as many accessible shows!
2021 is going to be a stellar year for theatre (I can feel it ๐), even better when
