theatre pouty fits

:sigh: well, it took a year or so, but I knew it would bloody happen. Wimbledon got Dorian Gray. it's on in October.

Yes, I'm twitching. The top price tickets there are £37, aka two quid less than ours at Sadlers.

:sulks slightly: I don't know how well the staging would fit into New Wimbledon, but dammit, I'm casting pouty looks at our usual front row seats there.

and due to me being the type of ebay bidder everyone loves to hate (yes, I did bid in the last three minutes after watching it since it was listed) the orange converse are MINE. £22.05, plus postage puts it up to £25. But I'll be wearing them *anyway*, so not so bad.

I'm actually at the New Wimbledon on Wednesday for Inspector Calls (tiny run :/ )

I like it, because it's cosy they tend to work harder to make the stage work, more innovation.

Let me know if you're doing Grey in October and want other seat fillers ;)

What are the Wimbledon dates?
I might make it a birthday pressie to myself.
I'll miss having front row seats when we're at Saddlers *pout*

Ask [livejournal.com profile] ksbpooks, I'm sure she's been there lots of times.

it's where Taz and I usually watch the Matthew Bourne productions, just wondering how this particular production with its set will fit.
