Anyone else hearing the Paris Museum robbery story and thinking simply that Mischief Theatre took workshopping their new show a bit far this time?
Monkey now flu jabbed for another year. Reminder for those who qualify that it is worth it, according to the monkey pharmacist.

TOP HAT: @NewWimbTheatre
"Howard Jacques waxing humorous, Matthew White’s adaptation... sound"
"charmingly period choreography"
"a crowd-pleasing tale"
"A pleasant if uninspired afternoon, barely worth dusting down the tails for"

Will the "Duke of York's Theatre" simply become "The Prince's"? Or will they go the whole hog and call it the "We'd rather not talk about it Theatre" instead?
20 minutes to go, climax scene. The pop of a Pringles can / crunch of content. The smell wafting around the auditorium. Rearrange in order of irritation from highest to lowest.
Front row tickets just released for "Into The Woods" at the Bridge Theatre. £45. Second row also on sale at £75. The monkey will update its site shortly, general info at www.theatremonkey.com/show/into-th..., www.theatremonkey.com/venue/bridge...

National Theatre today, will see all 4 plays in their new season, front row seats, total £95. Less than £25 each - or the price of a single band A seat to a show in the West End, more or less. I call that a decent result.
ENTERTAINING MR SLOANE: @youngvictheatre
"remains breathtaking to encounter such casual cruelty and denial"
"insufficient trust... means that it misses delivering clearly a message"
"unfocussed enough to be classed as a bit of a Sloane ranger"

"CATS"
@OpenAirTheatre
next year. Wonder how many shows will be cancelled due to cast members getting themselves stuck up trees? And if they have Grizabella sing "Memory" from the box office shed roof, I'm turning a hose on her. Fair warning.
New offers online include: 50 First Dates, Elf The Musical, Da Vinci's Laundry, Plied And Prejudice. Details www.theatremonkey.com/special-offe...

HAMLET: @NationalTheatre
"Hiran Abeysekera... role fits him like a new school uniform”
"Sophia Papadopoulos... stunning"
"A reflection of current mores, with a kindness in its lesson. Looking outwards for the first time, the play breathes anew"

THE LADY FROM THE SEA: Bridge Theatre
"Vikander revealing the darkest secrets of her past in breathtakingly intense fashion"
"tensile direction and a slow burn with sudden and impressive rewards"
"literally fluid production"
4* opinion www.theatremonkey.com/show/the-lad...
The Lady from the Sea – TheatreMonkey

Also worth noting at the Bridge Theatre, some of the most enthusiastic FOH in London at the moment. Particularly the young foyer lady selling programmes and young man working house right auditorium, who anticipated seat finding problems before they happened and never stopped smiling.
If going to the @_bridgetheatre at the moment, walking from London Bridge Station: use Potters Fields Park to get from Tooley Street to the theatre. If you go any other way, building work cordons make for a stupidly long walking route diversion along the riverbank area.
MARY PAGE MARLOWE: @oldvictheatre
"One woman’s life, movingly portrayed by five performers"
"just honesty about the struggles of an average female life"
"If there is a stronger play on the subject this year, the monkey will be surprised"

ROMANS A NOVEL: @AlmeidaTheatre
"a brave attempt to address a legion of conceptions and misconceptions about men"
"That she cannot find out precisely why is less satisfying, but this is a bold attempt on the citadel"
