Mr X also decided to substitute his standard prop cheeseburger for the real thing, a burger from Five Guys. It did smell very good though!

Mr X rather surprisingly lit a cigarette during his A2 monologue to celebrate his birthday. Some nearby audience members started to cough.

Another show cancelled tonight. This was because our temporary back up generator failed during this afternoon's cover call.

A DSM who refuses to wear a headset when cueing a show does not make for a good DSM.

We ordered 6 sugarglass breakaway flutes to finish off the run with. Each box contains 10. We now have 60, let the fun commence.

One of The Beatles was still very hung over when he arrived for the show tonight. It was requested that we position buckets in the wings.

After 3 attempts to move the truck in the scene change the crew stopped as the audience were starting to laugh. They were sent back on.

Cue silence during this interesting speech m.youtube.com/watch?v=BH0tFL… Totally agree with the heckler, probably about to face my own backlash...

The hashtag filter failed during the show tonight and some obscene language was accidentally displayed. Video were very quick to remove it.
A very naughty member of the cast used our shiny new #OlivierAward as a prop during tonight's 'Spooky Mormon Hell Dream.'

The audience member who Mr Wooster throws the police helmet to failed to catch it. It bounced on the floor and now has a big dent in it.

The only member of the audience was the Dear Leader himself. The dancers were nervous as it was also their opening night in Pyongyang.

A well known producer was seen in the audience tonight wearing a homemade blazer. He was denied a free interval drink when he requested it.

Mrs Lansbury was slightly late for her call this evening. It turns out that she went to the Apollo Theatre next door instead by mistake.
