I have vivid memories of the day mother and I saw the first part of Edward Hall's "Rose Rage" (my pick) in the afternoon, then popped round the corner for "Kiss me Kate" (mother's choice) in the evening ... An oddly enlightening combination, as I recall ... And, of course, cups of tea always help. I’ve found that a spirit of compromise is crucial on these occasions.

Whilst we often talk about 'shared experience' in theatre, I can't help but feel that on another level it's an incredibly selfish affair. This tends to ring particularly true whenever I go to the theatre with family members. Perhaps it's just the nature of our family, but we tend to disconnect in the theatre rather than come closer together. We're brought together again sitting round the table at home, drinking tea and ruminating over the night's proceedings.
