We’re On A Roll…
“When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford.” (Dr Samual Johnson)… and that’s how I feel about Soho – in a gender inclusive way of course!
The summer landscape saw a big change in our industry when Time Out released its final print publication. And whereas some may take this as a hint that ‘print is dead’, we’re choosing to see the glass as half full – it’s time for hyper locals to lead the way! As a direct result we’ve brought onboard a Business Development Manager to help us strategise ways to take our brand beyond just a print magazine. I’d like to think of My Soho Times as a lifestyle platform which now includes our newly launched free Venue Finding Service – let us help you with bookings for Soho and the West End, we’d love to hear from you!

If you’re reading the physical copy this magazine, it means we’ve already had our autumn release party at our front cover neighbour’s, The Little Scarlet Door… and if it’s anything like I envision it whilst writing this, I prophesize it was an epic house-party vibe bringing together our biggest supporters, partners and friends in one uniquely decked-out loft apartment in the heart of Soho (p.27)!
The Autumn equinox has sent summer packing and brings with it a cosy energy… It’s time to prepare for the Dinner Party season! We speak to a Wine Buyer and Water Sommelier (yes, you read that right) to get a better understanding of our drink choices (p.8).
All Hail the Drag King, non-binary performer Adam All, making waves in the LGBTQ+ nightlife scene (p.12), Gillian Smith notes the transfer from Elizabethans to Caroleans since the passing of Queen Elizabeth II (p.9). In the world of Fashion, model CC Mason takes us front row for trends seen at London Fashion Week (p.49) and Nicholas Cox offers us alternative jazz nights Beyond Ronnie’s (p.60).
We’re back on a roll baby, join in!

THEATRE
I recently went to see GET UP STAND UP – THE BOB MARLEY MUSICAL with my dad, and I can’t stop raving about it! This stage adaptation doesn’t shy away from social issues of the time, still evident today. It’s so much more than just song and dance. GO SEE IT – GET YOUR TICKETS HERE… and thank me later!


GET ORGANISED
We’re officially in the final quarter of 2022, ‘Where did the year go?’ you cry out! It’s not too late to make the most of what we have left. Let’s get organised! Keeping a weekly track of your plans, ticking off your ‘to-do’ list and finally getting round to working on that mailing list (p.22).
