Film and Theatre Lover!
Always a fun and enjoyable task is looking back at everything I managed to see at the theatre (read this) during the course of a year and putting together my favourite 10 shows! It becomes increasing difficult each year and that is only a good thing as just shows that the standard of theatre is so high!
Here we go then my 10 favourite shows of 2018 . . .
Here we go with my run down of everything I managed to catch at the Theatre in 2018, this includes plenty of UK Touring shows coming to Newcastle’s Theatre Royal and the Sunderland Empire. I squeezed in a few London trips and even another New York trip thanks to my marathon place!
In 2016 I managed to see 31 shows. In 2017 I managed to see 36 shows. My total for this year 2018 was 26 different shows. Not as many as the previous two years, but still a very impressive number. Check out which shows here!
After the fantastic new musical version of An Officer and a Gentleman I just had to pop to the stage door to meet these fantastic performers, who I am certainly a big fan of having seen them in many different shows.
Ian was previously in Beautiful in the West End. Jonny was in the UK tour of Annie. Emma was in the UK tour of Annie Get Your Gun. They were all just lovely and doing the stage door on touring versions of the show are so stress free compared to the West End!
Just incase you missed it click here to read my review of this amazing show, with these incredible people in the leading roles!

Some very exciting Theatre news was announced yesterday the Premiere of a brand new musical and adapted from classic film and one of my favourites An Officer and a Gentleman. Something to look forward to in 2018!
The musical is going to include the hit song from the film ‘Up Where We Belong’ along, with 80’s classics such as ‘Alone’, ‘Don’t Cry Out Loud’, ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’, ‘Toy Soldiers’ and ‘Material Girl’. Now, come on don’t you just really want to see this musical a lot now? I certainly do and I will be buying tickets tomorrow when they go on sale for the show coming to Newcastle.
