Hi, I'm Lorna!
I've loved theatre for as long as I can remember - the atmosphere, the storytelling, the way a show can make you laugh one minute and have you crying your eyes out the next - it's always felt like home in some way.
Theatre has been there through the good times and the not-so-good ones, and somewhere along the way I realised I wanted to share that connection with other people.
Growing up in Ireland, most of my theatre trips were to Dublin to see touring shows, with the occasional trip to London or New York. But in 2023, I followed my dreams and moved to London... and that's when my love of theatre really escalated and Theatreland Adventures was born.
Being so close to it all - the West End, the fringe scene, the last-minute tickets and the spontaneous trips to the theatre - made me fall in love with it even more. It's never just about seeing a great show; it's about how it makes you feel. The shows that stay with you long after you've left the theatre, that make you think, make you feel something, or simply give you a chance to escape for a couple of hours.
This little corner of the internet is my way of sharing those moments. You'll find honest reviews, theatre memories, reactions and the occasional ramble - just genuine thoughts from someone who loves the stage and everything that comes with it.
You'll also find me over on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok, where I share more theatre content and keep up with everything happening on and off the stage.
Thanks so much for being here. I hope you enjoy following along on my theatre adventures!
Why Theatreland Adventures?
The first time I came to London on holiday with my sister back in 2013, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep the night before — I was finally going to see Wicked in the West End!
While wandering the streets, I couldn't help but notice the street signs that said “Theatreland”, and I loved it! What I love most about theatre is the escapism — being able to step into another world for a few hours — and this felt like the perfect place to escape: Theatreland.
My other love is travel and exploring new places — going on adventures with my camera and taking in the world around me. So bringing these two loves together felt like the perfect combination, and Theatreland Adventures was born.
