Graun comment system not working so just wanted to say that I agreed with the latest piece. This whole "the West End was so much better when xyz" mindset never fails to infuriate me as it invariably goes hand-in-hand with an attitude that people who go to the theatre don't know what's good for them.
Hi Andrew
I enjoyed this piece.
The Musicals are important, as they help maintain the wider infrastructure of theatre-dom in London, from providing jobs and experience for technicians and actors to just encouraging restaurants to have performance-friendly serving times.
I have never been to a musical, but I am glad that they are there, and I hope non-musical theatre can piggy-back on them.
