Tickets for Charlie & the Chocolate Factory from December 2013 - May 2014 are on presale to Sky Customers, via Sky Rewards, they go on general release 26th June. Unfortunately, they are still full price, but the availability is very good if its something you are interested in and want specific dates.

Some great performances at West End Live in Trafalgar Square today. Les Mis cast gave a stunning performance of One Day More.

Was going to go tomorrow, with kids after cinema as there are some kids shows on, but it looked pretty crazy on the TV, so not sure whether to take them now, one has their arm in full plaster cast so may not be wise.

Yes, it was very busy and certainly early on it was quite crushed. Crowd starting thinning out from about 2.30pm onwards as all the big shows had performed and were off to the theatres for matinee performances. I understand your dilemma Rainey.

Yes it was very busy very early on (with crowd controlled entrance from almost the start), having said that we didn't feel it was *too* busy and we were in the front/second row.

You can always watch perfectly fine from a "safe" distance as there are big screens that are viewable even from outside Trafalgar Square. There's also a separate screen set up in Leicester Square.

I live tweeted West End Live today for Whatsonstage and just started posting some pictures (and videos to follow if I don't fall asleep) if anyone's interested:

Great photo's C_T, you certainly did have a great view.

We've just got some tickets for West End Hero's tomorrow evening, looks many of the same performances as WEL so can enjoy from the comfort of a theatre seat.

Thanks, I just posted some videos too! :)

I've read about West End Heroes and it sounds great but I doubt I'd be able to stay awake for it after today's long day and Monster's University tomorrow in the morning!
