Theatre Walking Tour

Leesh scored some free tix to the Theatreland Walking Tour so off we went. Now, it's not as though I haven't all these theatres before, but it's nice to hear about the history of them.

The guide was a 50+ woman who clearly loves this stuff and I'm happy when people ruv their stuff and do tours because they want to, not just because it brings in the dough. (Mike the Hottie, I'm thinking of you here).

Oustide the Stomp theatre.

We learned about the history of some of the iconic theatres, saw the oldest clock in London (in Chinatown about Wong Kei if you need to know) , realised that there are Charlie Chaplin and Shakespeare statues in Leicester Square and were told that Les Miserables was intended as a short running show, but was so popular that it still remains on show today, it's 23rd year.

Interesting tour but definitely for fans.
