I love London's West End

I went to see Legally Blonde The Musical today. Twas amazing.

I have now seen musicals in the West End with (in no particular order):

-Singing and dancing nuns (Sister Act, The Sound Of Music)
-Singing and dancing French revolutionaries (Les Miserables)
-Singing and dancing French opera people (Phantom of The Opera)
-Singing and dancing African animals (Lion King)
-Singing and dancing futuristic rockers (We Will Rock You)
-Singing and dancing people with big hair (Hairspray)
-Singing and dancing cars (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Grease)
-Singing and dancing wedding guests (Mamma Mia, also seen on Broadway)
-Singing and dancing pickpockets (Oliver)
-Singing and dancing nannies (Mary Poppins)
-Singing and dancing lawyers (Legally Blonde)
-and even Singing and dancing transvestites (Priscilla Queen of the Desert)

And my top five favourites were:

1. Priscilla & Legally Blonde (yes, it WAs as good as Priscilla. Even without Oliver Thornton!)
3. Hairspray
4. Mamma Mia
5. Sister Act

And now I need to see musicals with:

-Singing and dancing witches (Wicked)
-Singing and dancing flappers (Chicago)
-Singing and dancing boys (Billy Elliot)
-more Singing and dancing French opera people (Love Never Dies)
-and Singing and dancing munchkins (The Wizard of Oz, when it comes out)

Therefore I love the theatre. I am thinking of pursuing a career in acting, but when I told my mum this she thought I was joking. When I assured her I was serious, she shouted at me that it is not a 'proper job' and I can always join Amateur Dramatics societies when I'm older and that it is 'a phase I am going through'. But I can't think of anything I'd enjoy more than singing and dancing on stage in a big, glittery musical for my career. Harumph.

Oh, and I have decided that whatever I decide to do for Uni I am going to live in London. I just love it. Whenever I go there I always feel like my it's already my home. i love it so much. If I could I'd move there now. I already feel homesick being back in Herefordshire. :(
