The most important question: Did anyone actually get fleas at the flea market?
I've always liked the idea of selling off old props and things that would otherwise just get binned. Not theatre-related, but there used to be a shop near Euston that sold old railway stuff and I still have an Underground hand-grabby thing that I picked up there once. (I don't know what they're called: the long conical spring with a ball on the end that you hold on to when standing.) I took it in to work once and people assumed I'd nicked it.

This post inspired me to go down a deep, deep Google hole, the result of which is: they are called “Spring handles.” They have since been replaced with either Loop Handles or Grab Poles, and I can tell you exactly how many of each trains have and why, and which two tube lines don’t have grab poles that are colour coordinated to their lines. TFL fandom is much more uh, intense, than theatre fandom.

I figured I’d ask this here. Does anyone have a poster from “The Inheritance” from the West End run in 2018, that they’d be willing to sell? The one with the full cast photos on it? I’ve been after one for 5 years now and haven’t found it.

Although I did buy a few posters that I am very happy with, I kinda wished that I'd hung around the side of the church just to see what else I could have sought out.
Maybe I'll have a similar opportunity at the West.End.com
