Friday 5th August 2022 at The Rose and Crown, Kentish Town ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Emma Dorfman Two unlikely friends are stuck in a basement (for this performance, a literal pub basement) awaiting the end of the world.

Review: Tom, Dick and Harry at Alexandra Palace Theatre, London
Thursday 28th July 2022 at the Alexandra Palace Theatre, London ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Issy Flower Tom Dick and Harry at Alexandra Palace is a queer beast.

Review: Jersey Boys (Tour)
Wednesday 27th July 2022 at Leeds Grand Theatre and Opera House. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jersey Boys is ultimately a cracking hit parade celebrating one of the best singing groups of the 1960’s: The Four Seasons.

Review: Favour at Bush Theatre
Thursday 30th June 2022 at Bush Theatre, London. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Maygan Forbes Our stories on women adjusting to life after lived experience of the Criminal Justice System are few and far between. I can think of a couple of films such as Wild Rose (dir. Tom Harper) and The Unforgivable (dir. Nora Fingscheidt), I’m sure... Continue Reading →
Review: Dreamgirls (Touring)
Wednesday 22nd June 2022 at Leeds Grand Theatre and Opera House. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It’s not until you see Dreamgirls live on stage that you truly understand what it takes to bring it to life for audiences.

Review: Sixty-Seven at The Lion and Unicorn Theatre, London
Saturday 11th June 2022 at The Lion and Unicorn Theatre, London. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Maygan Forbes Brilliant brilliant brilliant! Now I am a sucker for a show about women facing a quarter life crisis of some sort, and as somebody who describes herself as having an “extended quarter life crisis”, the feeling sticks. Described as “an... Continue Reading →
