It's been a fun start to the New Year - a mixture of tight deadlines and outrageous hours. The Royal Adelphi Hotel has now closed - missed by many I am sure. I shall miss Jacqui - who is currently in Australia - a great deal and there are elements of the job that I quite enjoyed but it was getting terribly stressful. The end of last year allowed me to fulfill an ambition for my flatmate Julie. For as long as I can remember she has be pestering me to introduce her to
Eddie Izzard - her ideal man. So as he took over the Lyric Theatre I was able to take her out to dinner and then get to see him live. Imagine her surprise when my tickets included an invitation to his after-show party! Unfortunately I couldn't go, but Gareth was up for a night out - (well Imagine This was over and he was bored!) so Jules got to meet her hero.
Earlier this year it was Gareth's turn as we were invited to join the Drury Lane Theatre Trust for a slice of the Baddeley Cake. Gareth had always been asking me to get to meet Rowan Atkinson and as the Bean is currently playing Fagin at the Theatre Royal it became the perfect opportunity. It just so happened that Sean got us tickets to the preview that night so I saw the show too!
As for me,
Thriller Live gave me the opportunity to meet Kylie!
