What does guest list invite only mean? I've seen that a couple times before but have no clue.

I went to Guinness World Records Officially Amazing Science Live this evening at Watford Colosseum, the theatre has recently been refurbished and its really nice, I was pleasantly surprised and we had seats in the front stalls, but I don't think there is a bad seat in the place, even the Circle is not that far from the stage and wouldn't be disappointed to sit there.

As for the show, the first half was a little underwhelming to be honest, it was a lot of talking and not enough interaction, however it picked up towards the end with much more audience participation. Although I am sure there must be some more fun attemptable records that kids could take part in, rather than the fillers they used at some points. The younger kids seemed to really enjoy it but I don't think there was enough going on for the older kids.

I however, would really like to have a go on one of the chairs with the fire extinguisher attached!!

Oh no! What a shame. Nevrmind, Shakespeare works best in small doses I reckon, catch the rest another time.

You left well before Act 4 then? I bet Juliet was beng quite literal when she says "I have a faint cold fear thrills through my veins, that almost freezes up the heat of life" :bigeyes:

Has anyone been to see 'Once' yet? Intrested to know weather it is any good?
A horse walks into a bar and the bartender asks, "Why the long face?"


A pony walks into the bar and whispers, "I'll have a beer, please." The barkeeper asks, "Why are you whispering?".
"I'm a little hoarse."

Saw it on Wednesday. Not as amazing as I was led to believe but still a solid 8/10

Was going to write a proper review today, but have been really busy so far :)

We enjoyed Once very much, there were about a dozen very talented musicians and it was a sweet story with some humour. I hadn't even heard of the film. For 30 mins before the show starts there is some music and singing on stage and a bar (on stage) both before and during the interval. It's in previews until about 8 April so well worth catching early.
