Last Friday I attended an event for London theatre bloggers (#LDNTheatreBloggers) organised by the vivacious Rebecca Felgate of Official Theatre, after having been kindly invited by Michaela of my stage is the world.
The event took place upstairs at Planet Hollywood and was co-hosted by Seat Plan, the 'definitive seating guide to London theatres'.
Being my introverted, teetotal, slightly-deaf-in-a-noisy-room self, I was somewhat nervous about the prospect of spending several hours in a noisy room with a group of (probably mostly extroverted) strangers. However, I enjoyed myself. It was really good to be able to talk about theatre shows with people who had seen the same show (even on the same day, in some cases!). The food - sausages on sticks, mini hamburgers, potato wedges, pizza - was lovely. I particularly enjoyed talking to Laura of Loitering in the Theatre, whom, it turned out, shares my alma mater.
