Pippin by Cygnet Players
When I first started this website many years ago I didn’t expect one of my most reviews show to be Pippin but this is now the 6th review of Pippin on the website, from other amateur theatre companies through to the concert at Theatre Royal Drury Lane as well as productions at Charing Cross Theatre, […]
101 Dalmatians The Musical
101 Dalmatians is a movie the has had a lot of versions, from the original 1961 film through to the 1996 live action remake along with the various versions of Cruella, including the 2021 Emma Stone version, it therefore felt about time it was given the musical theatre treatment. The show clearly has its roots […]
Anne Boleyn at Hever Castle
I can’t think of many productions that I have been to where the setting of the show has been quite so impressive and relevant to the show and whilst others may have tried seeing Anne Boleyn, a new musical, performed at Hever Castle has to top that list. The show follows Anne’s life from her […]
Secret Cinema – Grease The Immersive Movie Musical
Rydell High has hit London and has done it in style. Found in Evolution in Battersea Park the iconic movie has had the Secret Cinema treatment and Secret Cinema have gone all out, flipping their normal formula for this show. As you arrive you enter into a fairground with the big wheel, the fun house […]
Just For One Day at Shaftesbury Theatre
With the 40th anniversary of Live Aid a few weeks ago it became clear just how much of a part of living memory the Live Aid concert was to many and Just For One Day realised this. The production premiered back in 2024 at The Old Vic and transferred to the West End, opening in […]
The Proms Remixed by Centre Stage
It is prom season….or at least it is if you are a Centre Stage audience member. Centre Stage have put together their version of the proms, The Proms Remixed, with a cast of 25 and arguably more importantly for a proms show an orchestra of 31. The show steers clear of large ensemble pieces that […]
Operation Mincemeat 2025 Cast
Since my first viewing of Operation Mincemeat in 2022 at Riverside Studios I have adored this show but having last seen it nearly 2 years ago when it opened in the West End and with a cast change it was time for a revisit. Keen to see if the show remains as strong now that […]
Rocky Horror Show at New Wimbledon Theatre
I am a repeat offender when it comes to returning to Rocky Horror Show and have reviewed the show 5 times alone on this website for various tours and productions, even before starting this website I had travelled across the country to see this show and it is possibly the musical I have seen the […]
Evita at the London Palladium
After converting to the Jamie Lloyd hype train after Sunset Boulevard I was incredibly excited to see his most recent directorial outing, his reinvention of another Andrew Lloyd Webber musical, Evita. Evita tells of Eva Peron’s rise to fame and power looking at how she did it, her ambitions, her charity work and her impact […]
Starlight Express – 2025 Cast
I have no shame in admitting it…I am a Starlight Express stan. Having given 5 stars to the production last year had to check out the new cast to see if they could keep my infatuation with the show going! For those unfamiliar with the show now is time to put aside any notion that […]
