Reviews by KarenTo end my 3 show day I got a Rush Ticket (bought while travelling to The Snowman) to see Frozen.
Unlike the other 2 shows I saw today, I had seen this one before (twice), but with the full current cast line up.
I still like the show and it was interesting to see it from the Royal Circle and slightly to the side – although a couple of things at the back left of the stage were slightly missed, I could see a different angle of the “Let it go” trick. I also missed out on the “snow”.

2nd show of my first ever 3 show day was my first trip to Wilton’s Music Hall.
I got a restricted view seat with a pillar in view but the pillar was thinner than most.
It isn’t get to win prizes for luxury but it was functional and the seat was comfy enough. It was also easy enough to combine with theatres in the West End – although it is slightly tucked away down a footpath and the outside is a bit anonymous looking.
The show was funny and covered 7 shows (Aladin, Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Jack & Beanstalk, Dick Whittington and Christmas Carol all within 1 hour 40 (with a 20-minute interval).
It pokes fun at the stories, had a little bit of political humour and was very funny.

First show of my first ever 3 show day.
I got the cheapest available seat on the day which was £25. The view was perfectly good and I have had far worse views for a higher charge.
As with the animated short film there isn’t any talking. There is music played throughout with ballet-type dancing, with some flying on wires within the confines of the stage. Quite a few of the younger audience members got restless throughout but the rake meant you could reasonably easily still see the stage – the problems only occurred when it was the adult audience members who were fidgeting with phones.
They only had a digital programs which was a bit disappointing, but it was a nice show to start my day.
