Please look after this bear, thank you
Take a look at my LEGO ideas creation of Paddington Bear.
I’ve created the Paddington Bear Brickheadz version, including a marmalade sandwich, where the pink brick for his brain should be, as we all know, he is constantly thinking of them. I’ve also included the iconic red hat and Wellington boots, and a printed tile with “Please look after this bear, thank you” on it.
He needs 10,000 supporters to get to the possibility of being turned into a real-life LEGO set.
Support is FREE and takes 30 seconds:

If you like my idea, just as much as I loved creating it, please go and show it some love.

Have there been any West End or London theatre productions featuring full-frontal male nudity in recent years?
Random question, but I'm curious whether there have been any West End or Off-West End productions in the last few years that have featured full-frontal male nudity.
I know nudity in theatre isn't particularly unusual, especially in more experimental or fringe productions, but I'm specifically interested in shows featuring male actors who are fully nude onstage, rather than just shirtless or briefly seen from behind.
Are there any notable productions from the past five years or so? I'm interested in everything from major West End shows to smaller fringe theatres, including serious dramas, comedies, and more provocative or experimental work.
Would also be curious to hear whether the nudity was particularly memorable, how it was incorporated into the production, and whether audiences generally seemed comfortable with it.
And if there are any upcoming productions featuring male nudity, I'd be interested in hearing about those too!

Hunchback in Germany
I’d LOVE to see a production of Hunchback at a large scale. I see it’s touring in Germany into next year.
I know absolutely no German! Has anyone done similar, OR have you seen a production of Hunchback and can gauge the dialogue/music balance - would it be worth it, do you think? Obviously I know the film, but would it be not worth it in German? I could easily follow the songs but not other dialogue.
Or even in general, have you seen any show in an unfamiliar foreign language and was it enjoyable?
(Equally, does anyone have any theories on whether it could return to the UK any time soon?)

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: Two Parts or One?
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is now playing as one part in the West End, and we want to know what you think...
Have you seen the new version yet? If you loved the original two-part production, are you tempted to go back and see how it compares?
Does condensing the story into one part make it a better theatre experience, or was there something special about the original two-part format?

I built a Letterboxd for Theatre
Hey everyone!
I'm a student, and for the past few months I've been working on a little passion project called House to Half.
I know there are already a few theatre-tracking platforms out there, but I felt like there was room for something with more features, a cleaner design, and a bigger focus on community. So I decided to try building one myself.
You can rate and review shows, log your theatre visits, create lists, follow other theatregoers, discover new shows and more!
It's completely free, with no ads, and I'd genuinely love to hear what you think! I'm still improving it, so any feedback or suggestions would mean a lot. ❤️

Tracking exactly which West End performers and covers went on at every show
Six months ago I started a website with a big, audacious goal: to track every West End performer, covers included, who goes on at every single show.
That website is Recast (recast.show). Members have now logged over 14,000 shows, more than 1,200 of them in London. The first picture is from last Friday: at Rent at the Tom Stoppard Theatre, Hannah Macpherson went on as Maureen. The second is The Book of Mormon at the Prince of Wales on September 26, when eight covers went on.
But the work is never done. If you're interested in helping, we need more people in the stalls and dress circle logging every show they see.
Or if you just want to remember the performers you saw, Recast is for you too.
Every time you log a show, you get your own programme for that exact night. Click into a performer and you see their bio, and also exactly where and when you've seen them perform before.
And it goes far beyond the West End. It follows a performer's whole career, from the Edinburgh Fringe to Off-West End to the West End to Broadway and more.
It works backwards too. If you remember who you saw years ago, or have photos, programmes or screenshots, you can add that night to the record. If you want to help build the record or just log your own shows, join us at recast.show.

Phantom 2 - Love Never Dies in Concert
As a Phantom fans, I finally got to experience Love Never Dies in London! 🥹❤️
The music is absolutely beautiful, but the plot… let's just say it's a bit like a soap opera! 😂💀
At least this time, it's in concert form! 🎶 But I really hope we get a fully staged production of Love Never Dies someday. I'd love to see the whole story come to life on stage! 🤞🌹

How much would you pay for Paddington?
For those that have seen it, how much would you say you’d be happy to pay to see Paddington (in hindsight, knowing how much you did/didn’t enjoy it).
I’m looking to go early next year and tickets are mostly £200+ minimum (for when I’m looking to go).
Yes, I’m aware that booking further in advance lowers prices but I’m specifically looking for early 2027 so please do not recommend that. But based off your experience, how much would you say you’d be willing to pay? :)

Golden Boy Ticket Swap
Hi I have two tickets to Golden Boy, with Josh O'Connor, on October 23 that my wife can't attend and the show is completely sold out -- so looking to ideally swap the pair for another date but would also be willing to swap just one ticket. Most, but not all, dates between now and the last show on Oct 31 would work with enough warning. Here are the details:
Show: Golden Boy, Almeida Theatre
Date + time: Friday, 23 October, 7:30 pm
Number of tickets: 2
Specific seat number(s) & section: Stalls, F11 and F12
Original ticket price: £37.50 F11, £27.50 F12 -- bought during member pre-sale so much more expensive now with dynamic pricing (if a ticket ever does appear again)
Resell price: Looking to swap ideally but would consider offers. DM me if interested.
Note I also have a pair of tickets to the Cary Churchill play Triumph that immediately follows at the Almeida (i.e. Oct 23 at 10:45 pm, the final performance.) Happy to discuss including that in the swap as well but not mandatory, just let me know if interested....
