Royal Oprah House -Covent Garden London



The view from the front lane. It was my first time to visit the Royal Oprah House, at first I was reluctant as I was not sure if I could go through all that. I am more of a Cinema man watching an action or a thriller. Theatre just reminded me of school days, I am not sure if they were very memorable, more like boredom. But I guess all evening out depends on the person you were with and I was with the best of company on that night. After our little walk about at the London Museum, that's only because I had to meet my girl friend at South Kensington Station, and we thought since the evening is likely to be very cultural, London Museum would be appropriate. I gave her a card, her results came out or was about to not sure, but it was an excuse and we sat and had something to eat at the Museum cafe. 

We also went for dinner near the Oprah House, the only decent thing we could find at a walking distant was an American restaurant, don't ask why because later we discovered there was a restaurant in the Oprah House, but it was nice to walk about and see the shops. 

The show was Sleeping Beauty and it was an amazing experience, I am not a regular theatre goer so not really much to comment except I really enjoyed the evening. My companion was the right person for an evening rich in culture and class. 

I wont recommend the front seats, your neck will ache and you get to see the musicians which can often be a little distracting.
