This Saturday we were in London to see A Little Night Music. This is one of my favourite musicals by Stephem Sondheim. It was at the Menier Chocolate Factory near London Bridge. This is a very small theatre with very hard bench seats for only 150 people. The show could not have been better for me. Trevor Nunn directed and the cast included Maureen Lipman and Hannah Waddingham, who I last saw as the Lady of the Lake in Spamalot. It also included Jessie Buckly who was runner up in the BBC production “I’d do anything”.
The rest of the season is sold out, but it will be tranferring to the Garrick Theatre in the west End in March. The show is all about tangled relationships at turn of the last century, which was fitting for Valentines day. It includes the song ‘Send in the Clowns’ http://www.menierchocolatefactory.com/a_little_night_music
