Lots of nice sounding events but best of all, free children's tickets when accompanied by an adult to lots of different shows (and not just the usual blockbuster suspects either, most of these had sold out by the time we got our act together).
Ds and I are off to see The Thirty-Nine Steps on Saturday and really looking forward to it.
I am sure I've seen it recommended on here

Took dd to The Sound of Music last night - she loved it.

forgot link for people needing more info
I'd have fancied that KTeePee but ds is suspicious of the amount of dirndls

Tickets for age suitable events/shows had sold out by the time I checked the weekend after they came out. Unfortunately we were on holiday that week

We missed the early booking bonanza for the same reason LIZS. We're lucky, 39 Steps is right up ds' street. In a couple of years' time, dd will be capable of shedding her parents' blood if she misses whatever is the biggest, twirliest, danciest musical on at the time or so we suspect

You won't be next year Fio - it's an annual thing, and getting bigger every year

Steady there and maybe lay in some bromide for after September

There were lots of boys there last night too but I would get your ds to watch the film first if you are not sure it will suit him...

We are seeing Billy Elliot on Monday and a matinee of Mary Poppins on Tuesday. It is worth going back to the KW site as they do release more tickets after the initial few days.

Elphi don't tell me that we're seeing MP on Tuesday and paid £££
