Bug opens tomorrow. Anyone here have tickets for the run? I guess it's sold out.

reply

I have tickets for April 26th, yes I believe it is sold out for the run

That's exciting! Please report back here. I keep checking, but no reviews have posted yet for tonight's opener.

I just recently saw Kate Fleetwood in The Widower and Alec Newman in Beyond Good and Evil (Inspector Lewis) and, of course, Daisy Lewis (Miss Bunting in Downton).

Quite a cast.

oh, and what's his name?.....James.........let me think...it will come to me. 

Here a little press piece on James playing Richard II (in a short film, part of a larger tribute on the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death.)

I guess Bug is in "previews" now. Opening perf on March 29, I think. So there won't be any reviews until it officially opens.

It was brilliant, acting superb and also got to meet the man himself in the bar after the show.

It's in an attic conversion and there's no stage, the set is just a double bed and it's all centred around that. The actors are within touching distance, at one point he rips carpet up and my mother had to move her feet out of way.

He's a really nice man and very tall, plus gorgeous and I had a cheeky little kiss off him
