Who Let The Gods Out Polka Theatre
A totally new show for us today, myself and my Greek god loving son, set off to see one we hadn’t read the story of, seen any publicity of or even heard of the theatre. The show begins with Elliot, sharing an insight into his life – a mum struggling with life, fears of losing […]

Awful Auntie at Richmond Theatre
Being a teacher and having children, I’m no stranger to the wacky world of David Walliams, but this darker story of Awful Auntie was one that was new to me. The story is of young Stella, told her parents had been killed in a tragic accident, who believes it may not be as accidental as […]
