It’s Behind You!
It’s Behind You!
We have started to try and establish a few family traditions at home since the kids were born and one of those is to try and get to either a panto or Christmas play. This year, Rachel has managed to get us all tickets to see Show White and the Seven Dwarves at the Liverpool Empire theatre on opening night.
Not only that, but we’re booked into Ask Italian for a slap-up meal beforehand and will be meeting up with a good friend and colleague Louis and his family, prior to the show starting. All in all, it was a great day out up to that point and getting the kids on a train sets the excitement off from the very start. However, once we parted company and found our seats it soon went downhill when one of theatre crew running around the place shot a pump action water pistol directly into Emily’s eye, meaning we missed the arse-end of the play as she was so upset!
Our first trip to the Liverpool Empire had been to watch Annie a few months ago and it was amazing, the kids loved it, we loved it, the audience loved it and it was a really great day out but this time around it just wasn’t meant to be.
Third times a charm though, so we’ll probably keep our eyes open for a proper show in the future.
