dress code london palladium?

[christine34]

Hi, can anyone help me, please? My DC (14) is due to go to London Palladium to see a show next week - are smart(ish) jeans and clean, smart trainers acceptable? Thanks.

Pretty much anything goes in West end theatres now. Lucky boy - what is he seeing?

from all accounts the palladium is full of little girls in Dorothy dresses at the moment. I much prefer green myself!!

Seriously there is no dress code. Whatever you feel comfortable in. I like to dress nicely to go to the theatre but occasionally I have turned up on spec in whatever I happen to be wearing at the time.

Thanks, fascinating - he's going to see Wizard of Oz!
Thanks, elpha - jeans and trainers it is then!

Just in case you thought I'd gone a bit crackers Elphaba is the name of a character from Wicked which is the story behind the witches from the Wizard of Oz - and she is green as opposed to Galinda's blondeness

Not at all, Elphaba! Shows how much I know - calling you Elpha!!!! Thanks again for info., has put my mind at rest.

Well Glinda does call her Elphie in the show.
