Disney knows a thing or two about getting people talking - and sharing. We loved their use of social media at West End Live this year. In the Disney hut, fans were encouraged to get pics of themselves with props and costumes from Disney's two current West End hits, ALADDIN and THE LION KING, both of which performed at this weekend's festival....

Over this weekend's #WestEndLive, he set himself an even more gargantuan task - capture ALL of the shows in one drawing before the end of the two-day event. See how he got on...

We took an awful lot of photos ourselves at West End Live this year, and we looked at thousands more over the weekend.

Check out some of his Twitter collections of your #StageFaves below...

With all the #StageFaves super-stars treading the boards at West End Live, the 'real stars' were positioned just offstage.

See them in action here...

Watch the full performance and check out these wicked images of the cast and crew behind the scenes...

Legendary American television comedy show Saturday Night Live has spoofed screen-to-stage musical LEGALLY BLONDE, which had its UK premiere starring Sheridan Smith in 2010. Does it give you any ideas for which #StageFaves musicals they should tackle next?
