The One Stage season kicked off at the St James Theatre last night with Ben Ockrent's new play Breeders. Directed by Tamara Harvey and starring Tamzin Outhwaite, Angela Griffin, Jemima Rooper and Nicholas Burns, the play is inspired by Ockrent's real-life experience and offers a new perspective on how and why we make babies.

Guests in attendance included Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden, Charlie Condou and Cynthia Erivo. Below are some of our favourite snaps from the evening, keep strolling for Dan Wooller's full gallery and our exclusive video with the cast.
