The
London West End Theatre district has over 50 theaters where one can see any
type of drama, comedy, dance, or music imaginable. There is an official
half-price tickets stand in Leicester Square, where one can get half-priced
tickets for the day of performance. We were able to get tickets to Les Mis
in the fourth row! What an experience that was! London has a small
Chinatown, which borders on the theater district. We had a great meal of
several Chinese delicacies, including Crispy Duck.
Leicester Square
(pronounced "Lester" square) is quite the night spot with people walking
around, eating ice cream, watching street performers, going to clubs, etc.
It's great for people-watching. But beware - the Tube closes at
midnight and trying to get onto a train at Leicester Square at midnight is
unbelievable as hundreds of young people empty out of the square all at the
same time! |
