Speed-the-Plow review
Okay so the day finally arrived…after months and months of the most hotly anticipated stage debut in a generation and the day finally came. Lindsay Lohan on stage. YES! So many were waiting for her to fail, so much so that I was feeling genuinely dismayed for her; at just 27 years old she has...
Lord of the Dance: Dangerous Games review
My My! Lord of the Dance: Dangerous Games is an extravaganza! The only real way I feel I can respond to such a feast of the eye is via the medium of dance (see video.) However as they pay me to write, I suppose I ought to pen (tap?) a little something too. Lord of the Dance kind of goes like this:...
Evita: London review
Evita is one of the most famous musicals ever. Even my non-musical friends have heard of Evita; it is one of the shiniest jewels in Andrew Lloyd Webber's “King of Musicals” crown. This is a show that is so enjoyably written and so delightfully orchestrated that it should be hard not to love; I...
The 39 Steps review
Opening a play in London and seeing it last more than 6 months at a West End venue is a pretty great success. Adapted from the John Buchan novel and the Alfred Hitchcock film of the same name, The 39 Steps has recently celebrated it’s 8th West End Birthday, thus leading me to believe this must be...

Forbidden Broadway: West End review
Being a regular week night theatregoer, It is a very rare opportunity for me to see a show on a Saturday Matinee! “What genuine luscious joy,” I thought to myself whilst arranging a pre-theatre lunch at Bills with my friend (time to EAT before a show is also a novelty!) And I have to say, I...

Let It Be review
Whilst I wouldn’t proclaim to be the Beatles biggest and best fan in the entire world, I am certainly pretty down with their music. I love a cheeky bit of “Hard Days Night,” “She Loves You,” and “Back In The USSR” amongst many others and who doesn’t really! As an open minded...
review
I bloomin love Gershwin! I really do! Plus I have literally (YES literally) been singing “Summertime” since the first hint of light and warmth on my skin back in April. Coincidentally I also love (lovelovelove) the Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre, the epitome of Summer time in cultural London....
Shakespeare In Love review
I was not the only one who was pretty excited about Shakespeare in Love, I mean the film was a hoot AND written by an actual playwright (Tom Stoppard) so already potentially lent itself to a stage transfer. When I heard the production was to be directed by Declan Donnellan and designed by Nick...
