You can also find detailed information on all of your favourite stars including biographies and details of upcoming roles in the IMDB database (see IMDB.org). 

Don't forget that reviews are designed to help you decide based on things like the quality of performances, the lighting, stage sets and of course the actors and actresses. Everyone's a critic has never been truer, so remember to read a few before making your mind up for sure.

Booking It All Online

By booking online you will save time, hassle and maybe even some money. Stick to either the venues own website or a well known ticket site like Ticketmaster or stubhub if you can.
