Its caption begins: Few of those who visit Drury Lane Theatre, whether it be for drama or, as at the present season, for pantomime, realise what a hive of industry and ingenuity such a place is, the enormous number of details that have to be considered, the great organising powers that are called into play. Few imagine, further, that behind the curtain there is at least as much space as there is before it, and that though that space is obviously large, every corner of it is a scene of much work ...

  • The Apollo Victoria Theatre Wednesday 25Th April, 2018
    Student Theatre Reviews Wicked! @ The Apollo Victoria Theatre Wednesday 25th April, 2018 Theatre Review Wicked! Apollo Theatre Victoria Wednesday 25th April matinee 2:30pm. Wicked, was an outstanding musical! Elphaba, played by Alice Fearn, and Glinda, played by Sophie Evans, set off a ‘magical spark’ despite their differences throughout the play. Elphaba, who was unfortunately born with an uncommon difference, struggled her whole life. She had to look after her sister whom was tragically unable to walk. As well as her father hating her, Elphaba became Nessarose’s full time carer, played by Sarah Mcnicholas. However things took a ‘wicked’ turn when they were both sent to school where they met Glinda the ‘do gooder’! As for Glinda, she was loved by all and hated by 1. Yes only 1! This play brought me nothing but excitement, laughter and tears of joy. I would say this could pass as one of the most well thought out and structured plays I have ever seen or even heard about. However, there was one factor letting it down. This is as follows… ‐Mumbling over words. At times, it made it really hard to hear what was being said or sung by the performers. This made a great deal of confusion occur whilst I was viewing this play as I was struggling to understand what was being said. If this could be changed, this could possibly be one of the best performances I have ever seen. Review by Tayah Fallon Alexander Myers 9 Ledecky Theatre Review Wicked – West End Wow. That was a rollercoaster of a ride.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by the Society of Ticket Agents and Retailers (STAR)
    Written evidence submitted by the Society of Ticket Agents and Retailers (STAR) Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee Inquiry into the Impact of Covid-19 on DCMS Sectors 1. ABOUT STAR 1.1. STAR, the Society of Ticket Agents and Retailers, is the self-regulatory body for the ticket industry formed in 1997 by companies and organisations within the ticketing industry. Its membership encompasses ticket agents, ticketing system suppliers, arenas, sports bodies, promoters, producers, music venues, most West End theatres and many other theatres and venues in London and across the UK. STAR members subscribe to a Code of Practice covering standards of service and information and we estimate that our ticket agent members represent over 90% of that sector. STAR works to help resolve disputes between its members and ticket buyers and is approved by Government under the Alternative Dispute Resolution for Consumer Disputes (Competent Authorities and Information) Regulations 2015. (See list of members below) 2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2.1. Ticketing is a key element of the delicate eco-system that supports the tremendous UK live entertainment and events industries as well as other significant sectors in the remit of the DCMS which have been devastated as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic. 2.2. Ticket agents represent a significant proportion of ticket sales for UK events and are an important factor in the success of marketing shows and achieving successful ticket sales. They also play a significant role in helping build new audiences, creating innovation, developing technical resources, finding new distribution channels, marketing and advertising events to both domestic and overseas markets.
