The pins have been produced through MBC Badges and were first released in February 2012.

Five thousand first edition pins have been pressed, with no plans to produce any more.

They are printed enamel badges 26 x 25cm with a butterfly clutch.

The pins promote London's West End theatre during London 2012 and are free.

They have been distributed to all of The Society of London Theatre's (the trade association for the London theatre industry) member theatres in London's West End and off West End for box office staff to wear.

Don't Miss The Real Show pins will be available at events run by Official London Theatre later this year, and possibly at theatre box offices for pick up over the summer.

You can find further details on the Official London Theatre website.
