Stage Door – Imelda Staunton
Considering I did not go to the stage door after my previous trip to London to see Imelda in Gypsy. I made sure to make the effort this time I mean come on this is the best performance I have ever seen by anyone on stage like ever. Honestly that is how good Imelda is, and to make it even better she is absolutely incredible at the stage door!

Star for a Day Competition
This blog post is my enter into the Star for a Day competition – read more about it here!
My pick of character will come as no surprise. Elphaba from Wicked!
Itinerary
Day time activity – Go to meet the Wizard so head to Harry Potter Studios
Pre-show activity – Munchkins Restaurant (38 Great Russell St, London WC1B 3PP)
Show – Wicked
Post-show activity – The Green Man Pub (57 Berwick Street, Soho, London, W1F 8SR)
Explanation
Elphaba is a truly inspiring character who never gives up on her dreams. The biggest being to meet the Wizard, so she is bound to find at least one Wizard at the Harry Potter Studios, and I am sure she can learn an extra spell or two as well. Then for some food what better place to head than the Munchkins Restaurant, they are a very big part of Oz after all, in a place that has a big Wizard of Oz theme she would feel right at home. Then to she herself defy gravity and fly at the show of Wicked and then what better way to finish off the day than a drink in The Green Man Pub, after all she wouldn’t be the only green person anymore and might feel a little better about herself!
