The Play That Goes Wrong
Mischief Comedy and The Play That Goes Wrong have been on my ‘to see’ list for a long time but somehow they had managed to evade me…until last night that is! The Play That Goes Wrong is based on the fact that Cornley Polytechnic is putting on ‘Murder At Haversham Manor.’ Everything that could go […]
Back To The Future Musical
Back to the Future is the latest London opening since lockdown. Based very heavily on the iconic film of the same name Back to The Future tells of Marty McFly who finds himself travelling from 1955 from 1985 courtesy of Docs time machine and a Dolerian.

Waitress Tour
Waitress was one of the shows which had its West End run cut short by Covid so I was delighted to hear that it was going out on tour with some of the cast from the West End. I was even more delighted when I was asked to attend press night at New Wimbledon Theatre. […]

John & Jen at Southwark Playhouse
John & Jen deals with family relationships, from the big sister, Jen, who promises to protect her little brother John to several years later when Jen is now a single mother protecting her son, named in memory of her brother. Whilst John & Jen was written in 1991 it feels as relevant today as it […]
I Could Use A Drink at Garrick Theatre
Composer/lyricist Drew Gasparini braved Covid restrictions either side of the Atlantic to fly into London for this single performance of I Could Use A Drink at the Garrick Theatre. Although his work has been performed all over the world (including London) his extensive musical theatre repertoire is perhaps better known in his home country. He […]
Pippin at Charing Cross Theatre
I am no stranger to Pippin having reviewed it 3 times for my website alone. My most recent review was last year at The Garden Theatre and this is a reincarnation of that show by the director. Pippin tells of a young man who is keen to live an extraordinary life. In trying to do […]
Doctor Who: Time Fracture – Immersive Everywhere, London
If you’re a Whovian (the official term for an absolutely massive Doctor Who fan) – and I’m absolutely one of these, by the way – you know you’re going to be in for a treat when one of the first things you see on a heavily graffitied wall just inside the venue is the spine-tingling […]
West End Musical Celebration Live at The Palace Theatre
It is no secret that I fan girl over numerous West End stars almost as much as I did over Backstreet Boys in my teenage years. Combine my love of these talented performers with the fact that theatres have been dark for a year you will begin to understand why I was so excited about […]
