When the curtain rises

Visiting Middle Eight in Covent Garden for the theatre trips

The West End begins just beyond our doors. Spend the evening in London’s historic theatres, then return for cocktails or a late supper at Sycamore. At Middle Eight, the night doesn’t end at the final applause – it simply changes tempo.
