The lads saw the West End transfer of Cole Escola’s wild, brilliant, absurd and hilarious and what a start to 2026.

When I found out it was coming to London, I knew it had to be the show to kick off the 2026 ICI season and beat the January blues and it delivered on every level

🎯 I went in knowing nothing except that it was about Mary Todd Lincoln. That’s the way to do it. No spoilers. No context. Just go

It’s camp, chaotic, smart, q***r, absurd, it is, simply, brilliant.

11 out of 10

πŸ™Œ The cast were beyond amazing:
⭐ IS Mary Todd Lincoln

⭐ gterera and knocked it out of the park

Special love to . We last saw him in Torch Song at the Turbine Theatre in 2019. So good to see him back on stage. Who the f**k is Louise? πŸ˜‚

πŸ“Έ And then the magic continued.

We were lucky enough to have a cast meet and greet after the show.

These moments are never expected. The cast are exhausted after performing and the last thing they owe anyone is a photo. But they were so warm and so kind

We’ll never take that for granted. It also helps ICI reach more people, especially those new to theatre.

Massive thanks to and , especially Hannah and Wyn, for making it happen

To everyone who joined us tonight, especially those attending their first ICI theatre event, thank you. It means so much to kick off the year with you

🌈 ICI events are never just about seeing a show. They are about connection, community and show what is possible when q***r joy, art and community come together.

I always try to create those extra little moments. Tonight was one of those nights

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us on Thursday night for the Monthly Mixer and live screening of the Celebrity Traitors Finale!

It honestly felt like watching a football final, those last few minutes had the room screaming. 10/10. No Notes.

Swipe ➑️ for the video. Thank you for capturing the moment.

Big love to everyone who brought the vibes, the campness, and that deep passion for The Traitors.

πŸ“ Special thanks to the team for giving us our own dedicated space with a full projector setup, extra tables, and a great atmosphere throughout.

πŸ™ A heartfelt welcome to our first-time attendees, we know coming to something new, especially a sit-down watch party, can be a big step. We hope you felt at home, and we’d love to see you again soon πŸ’«

And of course, to our returning regulars, your energy is what keeps this group so special. Thank you for coming back time and time again.

booked Here And Now last year, and it was worth the wait

This was a jukebox musical, and then some. Hearing the Steps songs in a new setting gave them fresh meanings, but they still hit hard, we laughed, there were a few tears, and we danced and sang along the end.

Better Best Forgotten turned the plot, Last Thing On My Mind became a rethink, One For Sorrow tugged every heartstring, Tragedy landed with force, then brought the house down with Chain Reaction.

The set looked great, the cast were all outstanding, it was just awesome from start to finish.

Huge thanks to for setting up the meet and greet, and to the cast for staying after. Our group photo may be a deeper shade of blue, but it is a keeper.

The show is In London until Sunday 9 November 2025, then touring the UK through 2025 and into 2026.

Big thanks to all the lads who joined, and a warm welcome to the new lads at their first ICI event.

Tickets now on sale for the ICI Panto, 16 December, and Oh Mary, 6 January.

visited the Elephant & Castle Town Centre development for the second time last Thursday.

We began the visit at the new marketing suite, where we explored detailed models of the full masterplan.

It’s a great space to get a sense of the scale and vision behind the development and how everything fits together.

It was also fantastic to explore new areas not included in our August tour, a real sign of how quickly things are progressing.

The landscaping and common spaces between buildings are starting to take shape and already look impressive.

TfL have now taken full control of the new Northern line ticket hall, so we weren’t able to access that part of the site, but it’s great news for Elephant & Castle residents, real progress is happening.

Massive thank you to and Delancey for hosting us again and giving us another brilliant behind-the-scenes tour πŸ—οΈβœ¨

We’re especially grateful to Diana for offering to host a third visit in the new year. We’d love to return in early 2026 and see how much has changed in the run-up to the grand opening.

And thank you to everyone who joined us last Thursday, including first-time ICI attendees and returning members. It was a pleasure to share the experience with you all, and we hope to see you at more upcoming events very soon πŸ’›

🎀✨ ABBA Voyage – Thank You for the Music! πŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί

This was fifth trip to and my seventh time, and it still feels as electric as ever. It’s one of those shows that just never loses its magic.

In May, they added Super Trouper, The Name of the Game and Money, Money, Money to the setlist, while also rotating songs like Take a Chance on Me to keep each performance feeling fresh.

You never quite know what you’re going to get, and that’s what makes it so special.

Sharing it with people seeing it for the first time is honestly my favourite part. Watching their faces light up is pure joy. ✨

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, what an incredible way to kick off the weekend.

Special shoutout to who absolutely stole the spotlight with those epic platforms, flares and full-on disco energy. πŸ”₯

And, massive thanks to Simon for looking after us and helping make these ICI nights possible. πŸ™

had such an amazing time at The Traitors: Live Experience. They’ve done such a good job with it. It was so well put together.

team were brilliant, and a huge shoutout to Raven, our host, who was so cool.

We had so much fun at the Round Table, sitting around it felt so real. We had our tasks to do, and four of us even got to go to the turret at the very end to plot and poke.

Such a cool experience, even if I’m still completely useless at the game πŸ˜‚

Huge thanks to all who came along. It was such a brilliant night with everyone. You were all great sports.

🎩 Hats off to the Traitors, and who pulled off the win at the end. Well played. And to who was recruited as a Traitor right from the startπŸ˜…

Even those who were banished had a blast watching everything unfold. Sorry again to Ryan and who were the first to go, I really did try to avenge you both.

As for me, I’m clearly a terrible Faithful πŸ˜‚ I trust everyone, follow my gut, and always get it wrong, so nothing different from the real world.

I can’t recommend this experience enough!
