10 theatrical New Year challenges
Published on 3 January 2017
Look, it's tomorrow! So here are 10 theatrical New Year challenges for you. Remember to tweet your pictures and tag me, @Harri_L_002, as you complete them!
- Buy the soundtrack to a musical you haven't heard or seen before.
- Try to fit as many theatrical quotes into a conversation as possible. Tweet them with the hashtag #SlyQuoter and see how many you can get in total.
- Indulge in some theatre merchandise.
- Have a stagey film evening with some fellow Thespians.
- Sing in the rain (I'm sure we won't have to wait too long for an opportunity).
- Take the most theatrical selfie possible. And, of course, see some shows!
- Something old – book tickets to see a show that's been running in the West End for five years or more. Les Misérables,The Phantom of the Opera, The Lion King and Wicked are my top recommendations.
- Something new – book tickets to see a show that's opened within the last couple of years. Better still, book to see a show like Hamilton which is opening later this year.
- Something local – local theatre is a gift; make the most of it!
- And something true – there are lots of shows out there, both within and without the West End, based on true stories, and some of them are real gems.
