Went to see In The Night Garden Live. How. Magical!

Took a bit of a walk from Grand Central due to the building works and diversion, but builders around have clear directions and were more than helpful so no issues getting there.

Once in it was a touch overwhelming initially, busy, selling kiosks to the left and I wasn't too sure where to go but staff on reception directed us.

Lovely, cheerful staff checking tickets and interacting with the kids. Clear rules (no flash photography but we're able to take photos) and a check of the bags.

We had front row seats. We were worried initially as it came with a warning when booking that we were 'under stage level'. The seats were perfect! (small leg room)

We saw the performance, it enchanted my daughter and the children around her. It held her interest for the full hour. The set was amazing and we were astounded when the Pinky Ponk flew above us.



Overall we will be visiting again and I'm sure the experience has created a theatre fan in our household
