Charing Cross Theatre

Posted on 06/11 by Andy Roberts

There are lots of little theatres and theatre-pubs in London as well as all the well known West End theatres, and this is one of them – the Charing Cross Theatre located under the arches near Embankment tube station.

Charing Cross Theatre

If you come out of Embankment towards Charing Cross and immediately turn left into the underneath the arches section, then the Theatre is just after the South African shop where I sometimes buy my Laager rooibos (redbush) tea.

It’s a 275 seater theatre with a restaurant and a bar licensed to 2.30am, the current show being a production of “La Boheme” by Puccini.

time capsule April May iPad and Podcast

Posted on 01/05 by Andy Roberts

I get sent these ‘time capsules’ about once a fortnight, depending on whether or not I uploaded any interesting photographs about one year ago, and they usually serve to remind me of something worth revisiting, even if it’s only to get an idea of how time is passing where different events fit together. The one below shows that I’d only just got a new iPad and had started to experiment with photo manipulation apps such as tinyplanet, and a very basic wireframe drawing app. There’s also a mindmap created on the iPad, and a picture of the Theatre Royal theatre bar in Stratford, where I’d played a few songs that ended up on one of my podcasts.
