I thought £2 for a programme at Cadogan Hall last weekend was very reasonable, equal quality to the ones most West End theatres sell , while I try to buy a programme for all of the shows I go and see, I don't see how they can justify the pricing for something that is two thirds adverts.
Will have to try to cut down on buying them, I have a mountain of them in my spare room, definitely going to start with playtexts, I somehow doubt I will ever be tempted to put on my own production of any of them, and I'd rather read new book than read through them again.

We were at Barry Humphries' the same night. What a fab show it was! Are you going to his talk at the China Exchange? chinaexchange.uk/whats-on/60-minutes-barry-humphries/

Are you going to his talk at the China Exchange? chinaexchange.uk/whats-on/60-minutes-barry-humphries/No I'm not Snciole (this is the first I've heard of it) - I'm going to see The Royal Tenenbaums introduced by Russell Howard at the BFI on the same night, otherwise I would have gone to that.
