Review-wise, we have covered shows up and down the country with our main areas remaining in the Midlands and in London but we continue to grow and have reviewers further afield and more opportunities opening up for these. We have reviewed as a team over 100 shows this year, which is a huge achievement and moment for us. 100 is relatively small compared to other websites or blogs but this is all about growth and we've exceeded last year's total.
We've run interviews with casts and creatives from a whole variety of shows. Our YouTube video interviews have included Naomi Preston-Low, Gerardine Sacdalan, Audrey Brisson, Philippa Hogg, Emily Lane, Danny Bayne and our most recent with Ian Ashpitel and Jonty Stephens. We've run over 100 interviews through our website too, with our most read interview this year being an interview with the Japanese Queens from Six the Musical who had a week-long residency in the London production in November. We love connecting through interviews and look forward to running more in 2026.
Our website numbers this year have been our biggest achievement. This year alone, we've had over 442,000 views to our website. This is nearly half of our total overall views since we began. At the time of writing this, we are less than 17,000 views away from having had one million website views.
We continue to grow on social media, having surpassed 5,000 followers on Instagram and a TikTok page with over 27,000 followers. We love to connect with people through socials and share conversations with like-minded individuals.
I would like to save a huge personal thank you to the entire Beyond The Curtain team as we continue to grow and take on more opportunities. To all the PRs, creatives and theatre makers that we have enjoyed established or growing relationships with, thank you for believing in us and for giving us some really exciting chances.
I would like to wish everyone a wonderful New Year. I hope 2026 is filled with joy and happiness and ALL the theatre!
