Alyssa, Memoirs of A Queen at Vaudeville Theatre
I suppose I should start this review with a very clear disclaimer! I am a big Alyssa Edwards fan. Like huge. She is my queen of queens. A moment in Drag Race history. Does this mean though that, in my capacity as a reviewer, I’m going to be biased and gush about her week long […]
Showstopper! The Improvised Musical.
I’ll start by saying right off the bat; I cannot say enough good things about this show. If you’re looking for a wishy washy review, this is not it. It was my second time seeing this show (never the same show twice, of course!), and it’s the one production that I would encourage almost every […]
2020 The Musical at The Stag Theatre
2020 The Musical is a new show which is currently in development and actively seeking feedback. I was thrilled to be asked along to support a new British Musical at early stages of its journey. The show looks at the impact that 2020 had on performers and the jobs that they took on when the […]

Public Domain at The Vaudeville Theatre
When the automated voice played with the usual ‘turn off your phones’ speech, you could feel theexcitement from many, including myself, for whom this was the first time back in the theatrepost-lockdown.

It tells the story of Michael and his journey through the 80’s including his diagnosis of HIV, his 4 year countdown and surviving that countdown when others did not.

Abba Mania at Shaftesbury Theatre
It feels like perfect timing to be writing this review of Abba Mania on the day of Eurovision 2021. Theatre is back and so is Eurovision….and isn’t that just glorious?! The show opened with the theatre manager welcoming us all back to the theatre and from that moment I struggled to work out who was […]
