Happy #WorldTheatreDay from Les Miserables

Today (27 March 2017) was #WorldTheatreDay! Let's shout out for theatre everywhere and for everyone who makes it happen! Here’s our guide to celebrating #WorldTheatreDay and a look at what our #StageFaves were up to in 12 tweets, including an apt goodbye to the boys from (New) Jersey…                        

No #WorldTheatreDay celebration would be complete without handclaps for the world’s longest running musical LES MISERABLES.

Raise a glass to everyone who works backstage! It was very sad to say goodbye to the wonderful JERSEY BOYS yesterday after nine years in the West End. We’ll miss you! But it’s a testament to the incredibly speedy work of the tech teams that after just one day the PICCADILLY THEATRE now looks like this: 

And that's the great thing about London theatre. As we say a fond goodbye to one great show we can get excited about another one opening. We’re spoilt! And there may be a few months still to go but we can’t wait for HAMILTON to arrive in London…

#WorldTheatreDay is also a great time to throwback to those shows and stars that hold a special place in your heart…which theatre experience will you never forget? 

ANNA-JANE CASEY in West Side Story

DARREN DAY's first appearance in Joseph…


And don’t forget the buildings that hold all the magic! Such as the beautiful Savoy Theatre currently home to DREAMGIRLS or the lovely Novello Theatre where MAMMA MIA! is playing. Which is your favourite theatre?

 

 

And what better day to treat yourself to tickets for a show? Celebrate #WorldTheatreDay with a party…or maybe THE WILD PARTY. Any excuse…

... Or by painting the town green, WICKED style … 

... Or by flying away with ALADDIN ...

... Or by kicking up your heels at HALF A SIXPENCE... 

 

And, finally, like ADAM LINSTEAD, make sure you get the outfit right! Purrfect…

 

Happy #WorldTheatreDay from #StageFaves!
