One of the few things that make London the great city it is is the growing hunger for arts and culture. I am no culture vulture but I am a strong believe that you should experience some things at least once. Theatre is a big thing in London and thousands of tourists flock to London to see one of the productions on stage. I am actually ashamed to say that we have been living here for the last three years and we have not been to the theatre once but we’re finally putting that behind us.

London does not just have one production house, there are a few of them, each doing their own thing. Theatre tickets can cost anything from £5 to £100, depending on the popularity of the production. We will hopefully be going to the latest and most talked about theatre production in London at the Old Vic called Speed The Plow.

A bit more about the show from The Old Vic themselves. Do yourself a favour and head down to your nearest production theatre and experience theatre.
