Shows closing in previews, single-seat booking, toilet nightmares and more in the WhatsOnStage Podcast Q&A special!

We’re back with a brand new episode of the WhatsOnStage Podcast – this time a Q&A special!

After amassing a deluge of fantastic questions over the last few weeks, chief critic Sarah Crompton and editor-in-chief Alex Wood have picked out some juicy ones: with topics including historical accuracy in theatre, green rooms, single-seat policies and flopping shows that closed during previews.

This episode is sponsored by The May Fair, a five-star hotel in London’s most iconic neighbourhood. Since 1927, The May Fair has been a landmark in the city’s hospitality scene; a timeless and glamorous spot to stay, socialise, and explore the very best of London, only a short walk from the West End’s theatres.

From award-winning Japanese and Italian dining at May Fair Kitchen to private events on the secret terrace, cocktails in the elegant May Fair Bar, or spa days at the urban retreat, The May Fair offers modern luxury for every occasion. Visit www.themayfairhotel.co.uk for more information.

Crompton and Wood host a weekly series on all things theatrical. News, views, frank exchanges and lists offer an unmissable guide to what’s happening on stage (and in film and on television) now, in the past and in future.
