London: Grease

yeap~ moi in London again! This is my 3rd London flight in 2months~
Not that I'm complaining... especially when the exchange rate drop by so much!
used to be S$3.10 to 1pound.. now its like S$2.57 to 1pound!!!

GOOD TIME TO GO SHOPPING!!!
However, with the financial downturn, it would probably be better to save that extra bit of cash for rainy day

I was so looking forward to this London trip (even though Ken is back in Singapore) cos my ex-team gal, Elizabeth will be there!! We had already planned to catch a musical in London..

I know it sounds unbelievable, but moi had never catch a musical in London during my countless times there. Watching a musical in London is almost like top of the "to-do list" in London, other than Big Ben, London ete etc etc

Instead of playing top dollar to watch a musical, try walking around Leicester square area where there'll be plentiful of stalls selling discounted musical tickets. It's a good bargain and if you're lucky, you might even get the grandstand seats.

Our Tickets!! It cost 30pounds and that's discounted!
Imagine it cost 55pounds originally.
We initially planned of watching Mamma Mia but they didn't have the earlier ticket show. In the end, we decided on watching Grease. I had watched the movie Grease twice before and kinda have a vague memory of enjoying the songs in the movie.

Outside the Piccadilly Theatre
You are not allowed to take any pictures inside the theatre. But moi secretly took a few pictures before the show started.

The STAGE
Moi and Elizabeth!
BTW, im so so so jealous of Elizabeth!! She's super skinny now!! She probably lost like 6-8KGS!! i wanna lose weight too :(Grease was FANTASTIC!!!!

I was kinda skeptical initially cos Eliz told moi she felt asleep while watching The Lion King *faint*
GREASE IS SO SO SO GOOD!
Gosh...moi truly enjoyed every minute every second of it!!! It's a wonderful adaptation of the original movie.. Eliz, moi and this woman beside us were swaying and humming to the songs like "Greased Lightning", You're The One That I Want, "We Go Together" and "We Go Together"Danny Bayne as "Danny" is such a Cutie!!
:)
The "Greased lightning" sign Don't miss GREASE... IT'S ELECTRIFYING!
