What’s Up Wilma? Jersey Boys, Pixie Lott in Breakfast at Tiffany’s and more

Hello dears,

This week Les Misérables celebrates thirty years in London’s West End, with a special charity gala performances starring some of the original cast members from the 1985 production. I sat down with current Eponine Carrie Hope Fletcher to talk about the show. Watch the interview below.

For a limited run over the festive season at the Apollo Theatre, the original cast of The Play That Goes Wrong will bring their trademark comic mayhem to the J.M. Barrie classic and timeless favourite, Peter Pan. In Peter Pan Goes Wrong, the members of The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society once again battle against technical hitches, flying mishaps and cast disputes on their way to Neverland with hilarious and disastrous results.

In my new blog this week I ask ‘Is the standing ovation becoming devalued?’. Is there a difference between standing up because you have seen something amazing and standing up because you can’t see the stage (because people in front have stood up…). Tell me what you think at westendwilma.com.

This week I’m off to see comedian Pam Ann, Miss Saigon, Thriller and press night of A Little Night Music on Friday!

So I guess I’d better get on with this, these shows aren’t going to watch themselves!

Speak soon,
