At the moment, the theatre's website is saying "the show will go on, but
watch this website for updates"

Is London enduring a snowy apocalypse or are we in with a reasonable
chance
of making the journey ok by rail?


There's been a fall of snow over Cambridge, a couple of cm, but it's
stopped now and the sky is clear. If that's all we get today here, you
should be fine in this area.

Disappointing, but there's quite a lot more for us due tomorrow and over
the w/e - a shallow low's forming in the north sea in addition to
convective showers blowing inland etc. And it's going to get extremely
cold with a bitter wind chill from an ENE wind as well.

I looked up my old postcode in West Sussex - believe it or not, they've
had a 24 hr accumulation of 38 cms! Wow!


I guess it's too late for the OP now, but the BBC has just reported that
many London stations will be shutting early, very early, like at 20:00, so
whilst you might be able to get to the show you might not get back
