We trod the boards looking for the best in British culture and art
On Thursday Thatcher asked me to go see a show with him at Southwark Playhouse. He told me to choose between a play about the end of the world or a new musical about two gay men in the 1750’s. I chose the gay one, obviously, and that night we walked (damned tube strike) to …

I chose this picture of Harry Styles from the 2020 issue of US Vogue because I remember when this came out, and this outfit was extremely controversial. People saw that he was wearing a dress and he started getting comments about being gay. People were even saying, “There’s no society without a strong man,” or …
Westminster Abbey was a beautiful place. To be honest, I’ve always heard the name of it, but I never knew what it was. It was actually the only place I got the headphones and guided tour, and I honestly really enjoyed it. I didn’t know how many names in there I would recognize. I saw …
Stratford is SO much different than where we were before in London. It was definitely cool to see all of the Shakespeare stuff, but I was honestly missing London the whole time. I will say the atmosphere and architecture of Stratford were more what I thought London was going to look like, so it was …

I have never heard the term “fringe theater” before, but … I wanted to see Witness for the Prosecution so bad because I love stuff like that, but by the time I went to get tickets, they were either 80 pounds or the rush tickets had sold out. A group of us still needed to …
I am currently sitting at my gate waiting for my plane to take off as I write this. I am so emotional. I have no words to describe this trip. It is everything I hoped for and more. The experiences had and the relationships forged are things I will forever be grateful for. This was …
Harry Styles was the only obvious choice for this assignment. He is an icon, a legend, and he is the moment. Harry Styles is actually not who I expected to see as soon as I walked into the National Portrait Gallery, but I am glad I did. It was very cool to see a celebrity …
I chose this image because it reminded me of War Horse and many of its themes. To me, this image shows the importance of family but also how even in tough times a pet/animal can bring people so much joy. I’m not for sure if this is a guy passing on a horse and then …
The Spitalfields Market was by far my favorite market we visited! They honestly were all great, and going to all of them made me wish we had something like that in Fayetteville so bad!! What I loved so much about the Spitalfields market was how much stuff they had there. There was more shopping than …
Please don’t tell Mr. Museum manager scary guy, but I did sneak a few pictures at the “grave sites” (where there were remembrance plaques – big whoop) of these famous poets and writers. I was extremely excited to see the one and only (times three) Bronte Sisters, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne’s names on the concrete …
