supercalifrgilisticexpialidocious

Well on Tuesday evening Linda and I went up to London (strange expression that since is down the country - but never mind), we arrived in Soho close by the Prince Edward Theatre, Old Compton Street. We were a little early, so went and had a soft drink and slice of cake each, well yes I was gob smacked, two drinks and two slices of cake = £15:00, talk about rip off !!!!!, anyway, after that we wandered around Soho and well, it was very prominently male gays hanging around the pubs, some very cute guys around and about. Anyway I digress, We went into the theatre, and took our seats, FRONT row, looking straight into the orchestra pit, and then the show started. I'm not that much of a musicals person, but this show was absolutely fantastic. Mary P is a real stunner, and was projected across the audience on wires right up into the roof of the playhouse. The music was fantastic and bought back many childhood memories of watching the film on TV. This is a must see musical. You can find out more from the website http://www.marypoppinsthemusical.co.uk/ and ensure you have your speakers turned on ! Marry P was played by Laura Michelle Kelly, and they have a complete bio on here and the other stars such as David Haig (of the Thin Blue Line) playing Mr. Banks, and Gavin Lee who plays 'Bert' in this musical.
