Friday 25th March 2022 at Leeds Playhouse (Bramall Rock Void). ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tess Seddon writes and stars in this tongue-in-cheek new musical about a young lass who, with no prior political experience or interest at all, accidentally finds herself the candidate for the Yorkshire Party (yes, such a thing really happened). That lass is Seddon -... Continue Reading →
Wednesday 23rd March 2022 at York Theatre Royal. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As You Like It is a tricky comedy to stage. It’s rich with famous Shakespearean gems and some great characters, but it’s also labyrinthian in places and it’s certainly one of the more overly generous of Will’s plays in terms of running time, which makes it...

Tuesday 22nd March 2022 at Leeds Grand Theatre and Opera House. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ First a humble board game (a creation of Anthony Pratt), then a film, and now a play - it’s been quite a journey for the classic “whodunnit?” pastime. This latest instalment in its history takes its cue from the likes of The Mousetrap... Continue Reading →
Saturday 19th March 2022 at York Theatre Royal.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Some shows are perfect re-set material, and this is one of them. Me and My Divas is a generous dose of escapism which sees drag artist Velma Celli (Aka Ian Stroughair) take to the stage with an irresistible charm and a belting, versatile voice to handle some of...

Monday 14th March 2022 at the Grand Opera House, York ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Richard O’Brien’s whacky musical is back for more - and the audiences are as wildly grateful as ever. If you haven’t yet experienced the Rocky Horror Show on stage rather than screen, let me tell you: it’s an experience. Featuring cult classic songs like... Continue Reading →
Thursday 10th March 2022 at York Theatre Royal (Studio) ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jane Hair sees the famous Brontë sisters centre stage as three very different modern young women running a salon in Bradford. They bicker and they talk shop between snatches of poetry writing, debating the merits of their respective literary efforts and checking up on their... Continue Reading →
Saturday 5th March 2022, at Harrogate Theatre (Studio) ⭐️⭐️-⭐️ Aliki Chapple and Ben Rigby perform 666 comments posted in response to a (pretty great) comic about sexism shared online by Gabby Schulz in 2010. The whole shebang may have taken place twelve years ago, but it’s abundantly clear that the notorious “cesspit” of online pontification... Continue Reading →
