2017 at the Theatre

This is my overview of 2017 at the Theatre which has been a very special year with plenty of trips to London and even a trip to New York and squeezing in some Broadway shows. All to go along with the trips to Newcastle’s Theatre Royal and the Sunderland Empire to catch the latest UK touring shows.

In 2016 I managed to see 31 shows. In 2017 I managed to see 36 shows! So just beating the 2016 total! You can see a list of all of these shows here. This also included trying to get plenty of deals and really using the day seats to help save money.

#LoveTheatreDay

As you are well aware I am a huge fan of going to the Theatre, catching my favourite actors on stage and the occasional stage door visit as well. This year I have managed a lot of touring UK shows, many visits to the West End in London and an incredible trip to New York for some amazing Broadway shows. Nothing better than watching live acting and singing before your eyes in some beautiful Theatres!

#LoveTheatreDay

This is being celebrated on Twitter and really is fantastic to find amazing posts from performers and shows as well as fans!

Stage Door: Young Frankenstein Cast (London)

As you are well aware I totally love Young Frankenstein the Musical and the incredible cast that go with the show! I therefore could not resist when seeing the show for the 4th time and 1st time in London to go to the stage door after the show.

The Garrick Theatre is very small and therefore the stage door is right next to the entrance/exit of the theatre and not hidden around the side or back like most other theatres.

Stage Door: Diana Vickers & Debra Stephenson

After seeing the UK Tour of a new musical Son of a Preacher Man using the songs of the legend that is Dusty Springfield, I was lucky enough to meet the leading ladies from the show both truly incredible (full review to follow). They were absolutely lovely!

Stage Door: Lesley Joseph

Lesley Joseph always has been and always will be one of my favourites! I am lucky enough to have seen her in Annie a couple of times over the years. I was very excited when it was announced that she was in the cast for Young Frankenstein and she gets an incredibly amazing musical number with ‘He Vas My Boyfriend’ which she totally nails. It is hilarious and rather filthy at the same time, I guess that makes it even more brilliant.

She’s fantastic to talk to at the stage door and more than happy to pose for photos too, total legend!

Stage Door: Susan Stroman

I was lucky enough to meet the incredible Susan Stroman who is the director of Young Frankenstein and has won five Tony Awards over the years! Such an incredibly lovely woman who was very happy with my love for Young Frankenstein, after my third visit!

She has collaborated with Mel Brooks on many occasions over the years and that is well just brilliant. Making a huge success of The Producers when it was first transferred into a musical. I am really hoping that this revamp of Young Frankenstein is a huge hit when it opens in the West End later this month!

Stage Door – Young Frankenstein Cast

I know I haven’t stopped talking about the incredible Young Frankenstein Musical since seeing it for the first time last Saturday. I loved it so much that on the Sunday I bought another ticket and went to see it again last night, I waited at the stage door to see if I could catch the cast members as they came out. Last week (and rightly so) they had an after show party!

Stage Door – Matthew Seadon-Young

Matthew Seadon-Young was Gerry Goffin three times when I saw Beautiful in the West End, I had the pleasure of meeting him at the stage door after the final show and he was lovely!

Stage Door – Ian McIntosh

Ian McIntosh was in Beautiful for the full run of the show, therefore I saw him in the role of Barry Mann the four times I attended! It was therefore lovely to meet him at the stage door after the final performance on Saturday night. He was brilliant with all of the fans at the stage door posing for photos and signing autographs!

Stage Door – Cassidy Janson

Since seeing Beautiful in October 2016, I have now seen it four times and that is without a doubt because of Cassidy Janson, although my timing was bad for the third time as she was on holiday.

Her performance of Carole King has absolutely blown me away with her amazing acting ability and that voice! The way she goes for it with the different songs is truly outstanding. So on closing night it was a true honour to get to meet her at the stage door and have her sign my programme and the photo below.
