Theatre Tour, Dudley Concert Hall

Dudley Concert Hall. Tuesday 16th October.

Unbelievable. The last week of touring is here. Just three more days of travelling, ironing, setting up and performing. From a company point of view the last few weeks have been amazing, with ticket sales for almost all of the shows hitting much higher figures than expected.

So, to today. Dudley. A very early start from home, and 7.00am is not a time that singers/dancers enjoy being out of their warm beds. As ever there are delays on the M1, and we are late arriving. Nothing unusual in this for our trip to Dudley. We always end up being late. Still no big deal as the get in is way easier than normal. As there are no tabs (Curtains), we are unable to use any of the stage props, and that means only the sound and lights to set, and then on with the ironing.

A massive 500 in the audience means that the atmosphere is great, and before we know it, we are stuck in more traffic as we travel to London ready for the show at Catford tomorrow.
