I did go and see Hell's Half Acre at the Old Vic tunnel on sunday night, I did enjoy it with various highlights such as the "disco ball" made of needles/syringes, mannequins wrapped up in plastic in a cocoon shape (like in aliens!). The only thing that spoilt it was there were actually surprisingly quite alot of people around for a late sunday night and the bar in the middle was loud and heaving, so it didn't exactly create the right kind of atmosphere!

Don't know if it was just me.....but I signed up for the audience tickets that have just been posted and it said they would be intouch......I then registered my sister who is 10 years younger than me and it issued tickets straightaway.....made me feel quite old!!

Your sister can get up to 4 tickets - so there's nothing to stop you going along with her. I registered for my daughter. I wonder what they would do if an old granny like me were to turn up with her! (not that I would want to)

Is that the KoKo thing?

that sort of show always does that, even if I knock 10 years off my age, I still wouldn't get a chance.

mind you I I wouldn't want to see that line up. Maybe Dizzie Rascal hehe
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks

It is so stupid as well as they never show the audience anyway, so it does not matter what age the audience is, so do not understand why they are so particular this time? I have had no trouble getting in before.
