Finding Dory (2016)
Sequel to Finding Memo which focuses on the character of Dory.
Dory wants to find her family but has problems remembering them (along with everything else). The film shows much of er back story including how her parents tried to help her deal with her memory problems, how they didn’t give up on her, how she got separated from them and how she managed to remember thing to rediscover where she came from.
The film does assume people know the Finding Memo story and has a lot of references to it.

Very good value ticket for £10 from last Minute.com B17 in the Royal circle which is closest to street level.
The theatre feels quite small and the bar didn’t have free jugs of water to help yourself to.
The play was funnier than expected. It is about 3 couples, 2 dinner parties , one affair and a lot of misunderstandings. The stage covers 2 residences which can get a bit confusing as the cast walk past each other to get to doors but have to pretend they can’t see each other.

Sat in seat W1 on the back row of the stalls on a hot day. Missed anything that happened in the top half of the stage area of it was above the top of the bottom boxes.
The play had a number of changes from the West End version including the car not flying over the audience and only being able to hold 4 meaning Grandpa Potts had to find a different way to get home.
It was funny and enthusiastic despite the heat and lack of air conditioning and massive queues for toilets and ice cream.
