Legendary musical theatre writer Stephen Sondheim has passed away at the age of 91! He dared to be different and pushed musicals to a totally new level and in a different direction. I have been lucky enough to see Sweeney Todd, Follies, Company and Gypsy on stage! All utterly breathtaking and timeless, he was also part of West Side Story, A Little Night Music, Into the Woods and more.
His musicals will last forever and his legacy will never be matched. Rest in peace.

Theatre: Patti LuPone returns to the West End!
Super exciting news broke last night that Broadway Legend Patti LuPone would be returning to London after a 25 year absence. I am such a huge fan and was lucky enough to get to see her in War Paint on my New York trip back in July. So to hear she was then going to be coming to London was very exciting. That also means I have already bought a ticket for October 2018. Yes, really.
