I don't know...............

Coming in from the A40 to Victoria Coach station, one can see the VPT rising majestically amongst the ruins of construction around it..............one is minded of that famous photo of St Paul's Cathedral standing proudly against the bombs of the Luftwaffe.

In my eyes, the VPT has never stood so strong!

Your description reminds me of a song, Bill, one I think we are all familiar with. ;)

And we will stand there proudly
And we will never walk alone

FIVE DAYS.... :D :D :mrgreen: :D :D
You are going to have a wonderful time! See you soon. :)

With this kind of atmosphere building I am wondering what it is going to be like next year!
In all of my experiences seeing this show in the states, the level of excitement rises in proportion to the number of fans present. With about 10 Americans arriving, along with fans from Switzerland, Holland, and who knows where else, I think all of us fans are in for a treat as we enjoy the energy of one another's company. :D

I happened to find this area map on the VPT's website. It is easy to read and shows many of the interesting things to see within a 15 minute walk of the theatre.
