Ds and Ps at Fairfield Halls tonight, good fun, best when it was loudest, I was yawning in the lovvie songs, not my thing. No interval, just an hour and a half at a fair pace.

Only trouble is, once you've seen shows as good as Chicago and Let It Be this pales a bit in comparison. This felt amateur compared to One Man Two Guv'nors. But that doesn't mean its bad, it just means I expect more now I've seen more. Probably I wouldn't have pa*d for it, tickets are £20.

We saw Afraid of The Dark last night at the Charing Cross Theatre. Not a bad little production, and although it was opening night but not too many teething issues. It's failry short at only 1h20 so the 20:00 start isn't too painful. I'd recommend it but the price for the front rows is a little steep for what it is at £12-£31 inc booking fee.

I agree with raj101 about the show beening a bit amateur but good fun. But raj101 You mustve went home in interval . The interval was about 15 mins . We came out of the theatre 10.30pm. It was popular songs in the 2nd half and lively. We were late collecting our tickets around 6.50pm we were given circle b . good view of stage although it felt at times too far away as Im use too the stalls.

LOL don't worry raj, that isn't even the worst story about leaving at intermission I ever heard. I once had a friend come into town and go see Wicked, which he had obviously never seen before. He was so happy after Defying Gravity he left because he thought it was the end! When I told him the next day there was a whole other half he was so upset!
