London is known for its West End theatre productions, but the fringe theatre scene in London is definitely worth checking out. Fringe theatre shows are smaller, lower budget, in out of the way theatres, and they cost less than the bigger shows. I decided to go see Marie Curie at the Charing Cross Theatre and …

Feelin’ Fringy in London
When reading that we were required to see a fringe show, I felt like a bad theatre lover. I did not know what in the world fringe was but a quick google search explained it. Fringe theatre is theatre that is not on the West End and is smaller in scale, not in one of …
I wasn’t Westminster Crabbey
I really enjoyed my visit to Hampton Court Palace, a magnificent royal palace in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. This palace was home to many English kings and queens. I don’t know much at all about the kings and queens of England but I have seen Six so I knew a lot more …
Hampton Court Palace
Traveling to Hampton court Palace ew got to experience the vast historical site full of museums, artifacts, and beautiful works of art. Hampton court palace was a beautiful area full of intricate gardens and what would feel like unlimited rooms for every purpose. Unfortunately there were several school groups also touring the grounds so many …
Hampton Court Palace
Hampton Court Place was such a beautiful place and such a nice experience. It was a relaxing break from the hustle and bustle of London. Even just walking into the grounds, where there was a beautiful field of flowers was so enjoyable. That flower garden was one of the most beautiful to me—I think the …

Long Day’s Long Play
Today we went to see Long Day’s Journey into Night. It was a beautiful play that shows the horror of addiction and strife it can bring to a family, along with other societal issues. This play was hard to watch. The Mother portrayed addiction and the mental state of self hatred and deflection amazingly well. …
a VERY LONGGGGG Journey into the Night
I don’t know how to feel about this show. I think reading the play before watching this interpretation of it, made it really underwhelming. I was excited to see this production because of how many well-known actors were in it. This play has very complicated characters, and it’s a really hard story to tell. Which …
11. I almost had to become a duck in the Hampton Court Gardens
Three blog posts in two days?? Don’t mind if I do… I know you certainly won’t. Creeps. We set off bright and early this morning for Hampton Court Palace on our second train ride of the trip! I did a crossword the entire way there and still never finished it and probably never will (because …
