My boss saw Jacob Rees-Mogg at Glyndebourne yesterday and said it almost ruined the whole day!

Weirdly, I've never seen any politicians at the theatre ever. I've seen Betty Bothroyd twice at the theatre but possibly after she had retired as speaker. |

I saw the late Shirley Williams at the Donmar once and local politicians tend to go to fund raising shows in the constituences. I saw Michael Fabricant at a show in Lichfield Cathedral once too.

I saw a local MP in a nightclub on Saturday. I live in Brighton. There was leather involved. I’ll say n’more.

I imagine you could spot Fabricant a mile away with his hair! Yes I actually think it is real as how could anyone wear a wig that bad. He's been an MP for 30 years so could surely afford better! |

Not exactly surprising but Rupert Christiansen was at the Royal Opera House tonight for "Samson and Dalila" as was Elina Garanca's husband, who is a conductor in his own right.

Again, unsurprisingly since he is one of the authors, Harry Hill at the matinee to Tony!

Really random assortment in the last few days I’ve seen Tom Price and Ciaran Owens at The Corn is Green (and I think I saw Dino Fetscher on the way out,) Connor Swindells and Jo Coburn at Jerusalem, George Rainsford watching Richard Winsor in The Car Man, the Reverend Richard Coles in the loos at My Fair Lady, and Joel Montague taking selfies with fans in the bar at Cinderella this afternoon.

sweets7 He wasn't alone but he wasn't with anyone I recognised. Now if he'd been with Roger Allam or Abigail Thaw I would have been very excited!

Maybe it's always like this at Jerusalem but tonight's stalls included Hannah Waddingham, Jason Sudeikis, Daniel Mays and Will Gompertz.

Not sure it quite counts but while chatting to Mark Ravenhill at the Kings Head Theatre after the performance of 'The Haunting of Susan A', Tom Hollander arrived for drinks. Given he's coming to the Almeida to do Patriots, and the Almeida rehearsal rooms are just next door to the Kings Head, I guess it was the end of the working day...

I don't think I will ever be able to top this night at the theatre. A couple friends and myself were at the theatre one evening to see "One Man, Two Guvnors". We were sitting mid-way back in the dress circle. We were sitting there chatting and reading our programs when suddenly there was a "buzz" in the audience. My friend poked me and motioned over towards the aisle to our left and said "That woman looks a lot like the Queen." I looked over in that direction and said "And that looks quite a lot like Prince Philip." We couldn't believe our eyes. There they were coming down the aisle followed by their grandson Peter Phillips and his wife. They took seats in the 2nd or 3rd row of the Dress Circle with all the rest of us "commoners" ... not special "Royal Box Seats". We couldn't believe our eyes. The audience was very respectful of them and didn't bother them though there were many cameras popping up and snapping photos. There were men in black suits standing at all the exits and at the interval they cleared a path for them to leave the auditorium. Not sure where they went during that time but then the men cleared a path once again so they could return to their seats for the 2nd act. It was hard to pay attention to the show as I found myself watching them to see their reaction to the show. They laughed right along with the rest of the audience at the show and definitely seemed to be having a fun night out. This was definitely the highlight of all my nights at the theatre over the years!!
