18th bday gift ideas for son PLEASEEEE

cathy36

My son will be 18 at the end of this month :beer:
Has anyone any ideas on what 'special' present to get him.
Like most teens he has everything so we thought of a nice watch (showing my age I think) but he said they dont wear watches as they use their phones, he is very slight and small for his age so no jewellery will look right on him like rings etc.
BUT he is mad and going to Uni soon to study his love of DRAMA/MUSICAL THEATRE and loves the WestEnd shows, he has seen most. I was going to go down the road of trying to find a site that sell framed WestEnd show posters or something similar.
Can anyone help or recommend anything in the theatrical world that would make a special gift.

Thanks

I don't think it came from this site, but I can't remember the site we used. It looks really good, framed on his wall.

eta - This is more like the one my son has.

He is going 4 times before xmas with college to London to see productions and to see behind the stage as part of his course.
Aghhhh it's so hard and difficult and running out of time.

Now this may be a random thing, but how about a tuxedo or dinner suit? Or even a regular suit.
He will need a suit for interviews etc, and a good one that fits well is worth paying for.
