I built a theatre diary for keeping track of everything I’ve seen in London - would love feedback from West End regulars

0 Upvotes

I've been going to the theatre in London for years and realised I didn't have a decent record of everything I'd seen. I could remember the shows that stood out and I loved, but not necessarily when I'd seen something, which production it was, who I went with, or what I thought about it at the time.

I worked as an actor for ~15 years until Covid and now I'm a software developer (slight change...), so rather than doing the sensible thing and making a spreadsheet, I've ended up building a whole website.

It's called First Night. I've had friends and family testing it for a while, and I've finally got it to the point where I'm happy opening it up to other theatre-goers.

You can:

  • log shows you've seen
  • add ratings and notes
  • keep track of things you're going to see or want to see
  • follow other theatre-goers
  • build up your theatre history

A lot of the catalogue is focused on London/West End theatre at the moment, which is why I hoped people here might find it useful.

It's free, and I'm still actively building it.

I'd genuinely love feedback from people who go to the theatre regularly - especially:

What would something like this need to do for you to actually remember to use it after every show?

And what would you love to see it do that it doesn't already?

If you try it and find something confusing, broken or obviously missing, please tell me. That's useful too.

Accidentally booked the wrong date for Beetlejuice the musical on October 15th. Is there a way for me to get my money back?

1 Upvotes

I thought it was a 2:30pm showing and it turns out it's a 7:30pm showing which I won't make it to my flight.

And apparently refunds aren't a thing, so is there a way I can just resell this?

Edit: MY SOLUTION HAS BEEN SOLVED, THANKS

Victoria Palace Hamilton

4 Upvotes

Hi all, I have two tickets to see Hamilton soon and am going with my sister who is 14 and I’m 17.
I’ve just checked the policy and London theatre has said that if you’re under the age of 16 you must be accompanied by an 18+ year old. I’ve been really looking forward to this and would like to know from people’s past experience if the staff check proof of age before letting you in.
Advice would be appreciated šŸ™šŸ½šŸ™šŸ½thank you

UPDATE: walked in last minute -literally a minute before the show started and they hardly batted an eyelid soo my advice is to go a bit later ! Best show ever!!

JCS Drury Lane standing ticket to swap?

0 Upvotes

Please forgive me if this isn’t allowed.

I managed to get one standing ticket for JCS on Wednesday 11th November, and I have been beyond excited about it since I bought it. However, my wife’s plans have changed since I booked the ticket, meaning she will now be away that evening so I can’t go as we have no childcare. So, this is a long shot, but does anyone have a single standing ticket that they would be willing to swap with mine?

I assume this is ok as per the rules of the sub (since this is a ticket rather than ā€œitemsā€ I don’t think it contravenes Rule 4) and that they don’t have a check against a list of names of people who are standing each night. If either of these things aren’t ok then do let me know on here or just delete the post)

Has anyone seen Tru with Jesse Tyler Ferguson?

Wanted to book tickets but wanted to check the reviews first. Strangely enough, can't find any long or detailed reviews - is it so bad, unremarkable, or is it just flying under the radar?
