Wyndhams October 17, 2007
Posted by admin in : Theatres, wyndhams , add a commentWyndhams is one of the oldest of London theatreland’s grand old venues.
Wyndhams Theatre is one of the grandest of the old West End theatres, which are all grade II listed buildings, both exterior and interior, on the Charing Cross Road, near Leicester Square tube station.
Guardian Review:
“I found myself more moved this time round than by the 1989 production: partly because it is rare now to find a West End play that addresses the issue of mortality, and partly because of the quality of the acting.
…this is a play about a man whose Christian faith is severely tested”
Blogger Lloyd Davis enjoyed it enough to twitter about it afterwards:
Lloyd is home having thoroughly enjoyed Shadowlands at the Wyndham’s.
Matinee theatre performances
The main performance is at 7.30pm but there are matinees at 2.30pm on Thursdays and Saturdays. If one were to book the Saturday matinee in advance therefore, or else chance being able to pick up same day tickets, then that might fit in perfectly. A full programme of theatre, comfort and sightseeing to make truly stimulating London weekend breaks with Saturday night still free for relaxing around town and Sunday afternoon to begin making a leisurely path homewards.
