The Benefits Of Theatre Breaks

The great thing about live theatre is that it has the power to take you to a lot of different places. Indeed, it is quite possible to forget you are even sitting in a theatre watching a play or musical at all. And when it comes to seeing some of the best performances on offer, you can’t do better than visiting London.

And of course being London, these theatres don’t just put on the best shows in existence - they also have a great history and presence about them. Take the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, for example. This has been open for nearly two hundred years, although the history of various theatres being in this area goes back a lot further than that.

It is this kind of history that adds to the excitement of taking a theatre break in London. For starters, it gives you a chance to take yourself out of your everyday life and experience something altogether different. You could be transported into fantasyland, or perhaps taken into the middle of a murder mystery.

It is also a nice way to treat someone for a special occasion. Most of the London theatres are located in the West End, which means you can arrange to stay in town somewhere nearby and then choose the type of show you want to see. In fact, whatever theatre you choose to visit it won’t be difficult to locate, and there are plenty of other things to do locally too.

That is the advantage of seeing a London show. You don’t just have to see the show itself - you can turn it into a weekend away as well. For example, you can arrive in London sometime on Saturday; enjoy the sights before going for an early dinner, and then seeing the show you have tickets for. And once you have done that you can relax in a nearby hotel room, re-charging your batteries in readiness for a nice relaxing Sunday.

Of course, such breaks can prove a good idea for a birthday or anniversary; but it is also the perfect way to spend any weekend when you have time to spare and you need a break from the norm.

Indeed, combining London breaks with a theatre trip can prove a worthwhile idea. No matter whether you prefer a taste of classic musicals or modern ones, or a choice between serious or comic plays, you will find something that tickles your fancy.

And remember that you don’t have to get the most expensive seats in the house to get a good view - you could save that money for a drink after the show instead!

MA in Theatre at Goldsmiths or Royal Holloway?

Hi, does anyone have an opinion on which of these courses is best: the MA in Theatre at Royal Holloway (specialising in playwriting) or the Writing for Performance MA at Goldsmith's? If you have done either of these courses what was your experience like?

Royal Holloway rocks. Never mind the course (which was good by the way) studying in those grounds is just such an amazing experience everything else pales into insignificance! Good luck.
