Matinée Club -
this new venture enables our members and their friends to buy
heavily discounted tickets for West End shows in London (and occasionally
shows in provincial theatres in our area). We are able to get
big reductions in ticket prices, although usually at quite short notice.
Members of other BTPF Branches
are invited to join our mailing list (either email or postal). A
small contribution to help with postage costs would be appreciated - a
book of 6 second class stamps per annum is suggested.
To join our
mailing list: please click here
to contact our Social Organiser, Claire Wickes and join the mailing list. Recent
events: we have attended performances of Buddy at the
Duchess Theatre and The Sound of Music at the London Palladium. Next
event: The Lion King - click here
for booking details.
Disney's
musical phenomenon THE LION KING continues to captivate audiences
of all ages. Combining dazzling staging and highly imaginative costumes,
masks and puppets, this astonishing show at the Lyceum Theatre uses
breathtaking theatrical magic to tell the story of Simba’s epic
journey to reclaim his kingdom. Set to the evocative rhythms and
seductive sounds of Africa, this multi-award winning musical redefines
the audience's expectations of theatre, giving you the opportunity to
witness a world exploding with glorious colours, stunning effects, and
heart-warming music. Watch
this page for future offers!
