On Friday night, Tim, Megan and Dianne met up in Covent Garden for dinner and drinks at Tutton's Brasserie followed by "Buddy", the Buddy Holly musical at the Duchess Theatre. It was Dianne's final night in London and we got a great deal on the dinner/musical combo through the Last Minute website.
We had a very enjoyable dinner at Tutton's - the food was great - and we had a good view out towards the markets at Covent Garden to watch the world go by. The musical, "Buddy - The Buddy Holly Story" opened in 1989 and has been viewed by over 20 million people, in over 16,000 performances worldwide. The Duchess Theatre in London's West End is quite small and cosy and the crowd was not huge, but we all thoroughly enjoyed the show.
All the favourites came out including Peggy Sue, Rave On, Oh Boy, That'll Be The Day and Maybe Baby. The guy who played Buddy was excellent, although all of the performers were very good. Any Buddy fans out there, get along to see it, definitely worthwhile.
