London theatre

Fact of the day: The Society of London Theatre’s TKTS ticket booth in Leicester Square sold 58 per cent more tickets in the week ending 30 July than in the previous week.

One of my sad delights is seeing how British theatre is represented in novels and other media.

Facts of the day: London staged 22 per cent of all theatre shows in England in 2014, up from 19 per cent in 2013.

Sundays are good days to put your feet up, watch rain dribbling down the window, and read the broadsheet papers.
