Something Rotten in Concert At Theatre Royal Drury Lane
Something Rotten has final hit the UK shores, at least in concert form. It feels like a long time coming for a show that is centred around Shakespeare and his birth place and I was thrilled to see if the show lived up to the hype. The show tells of the Bottom Brothers Nick and […]
