Join me for my theatre vlog and review of Waitress at Palace Theatre Manchester as the hit musical returns on its 2026 UK Tour starring Carrie Hope Fletcher. In this video I share my honest thoughts on the show, my £15 Circle seat view, merchandise prices, audience reactions, favourite songs and what it was like finally managing another solo theatre trip after struggling with anxiety recently. I first saw Waitress during its first UK tour back in 2021 and completely fell in love with it, so it was really special revisiting the show again and hearing songs like She Used To Be Mine, What Baking Can Do and When He Sees Me live once more. ✨ In this video: Waitress UK Tour review Palace Theatre Manchester vlog £15 Circle seat view & thoughts Waitress merchandise & prices Carrie Hope Fletcher as Jenna Honest thoughts on the show Solo theatre trip vlog ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 📍 Palace Theatre Manchester 📅 Filmed: Wednesday 27th May 2026 Waitress continues touring across the UK throughout 2026 and will also visit The Lowry, Salford from 27th – 31st October 2026.

In this video I’m sharing my vlog and review of the Operation Mincemeat UK Tour at The Lowry in Salford, where Lawrence and I attended the press night of the Olivier Award-winning musical. The evening started with a look at the Operation Mincemeat merchandise stand, followed by collecting our tickets and programme from the press desk. The theatre had a special press and guest reception area with themed biscuits and drinks before the show, and there was even a yellow carpet photo area with props.. We were seated in Row S in the stalls, which gave us a great view of the stage. Operation Mincemeat tells the unbelievable true story of the World War II intelligence mission where British spies attempted to mislead the Nazis using a disguised corpse carrying fake invasion plans. It sounds unbelievable, but it really happened! In this video I share my experience of the evening, what the theatre atmosphere was like on press night, and my thoughts on the show after seeing it live. ⭐ A hilarious, inventive and surprisingly emotional musical theatre experience. 📖 Read my full written review here: https://www.allabouttheatreuk.com/post/review-operation-mincemeat-the-lowry-24-02-2026 📍 Venue: The Lowry, Salford 🎭 Show: Operation Mincemeat 🎥 Video: Theatre vlog & review PR — Gifted Tickets 🎶 Music from Epidemic Sound.
