Waitress The Musical Review
The show had already extended it’s booking to 19 October due to popular demand ahead of the show’s London premiere at London’s Adelphi Theatre. After attending opening night… it’s no surprise to see why. So I entered this musical with high expectations, I’m a fan of the original film and the musical soundtrack has been playing non-stop in my house since before Christmas. It’s been my no 1. must see show in 2019. Especially as Smash star Katharine McPhee plays the lead role of Jenna opposite 30 Rock’s Jack McBrayer, Laura Baldwin, Peter Hannah, David Hunter and Marisha Wallace. The…

Jinkx Monsoon In The Ginger Snapped Review
Jinkx Monsoon in ‘The Ginger Snapped’ shows exactly why she won the crown on Rupaul’s Drag Race. The cabaret show is jam packed with love, laughter and a whole lot of camp. It brings with it a message around mental health in a jovial and uplifting way and Jinkx cleverly delivers a poignant message through the art that is drag. Jinkx brings you 90 minutes of song which will have you smiling, bopping along and certainly losing yourself in the moment. The songs are all off her new album also entitled ‘the ginger snapped’ and I guarantee you will be…

This version by Two Gents Production and Tara Arts is unique as it re-imagines the play in the context of a diverse and integrated English society, set in an indeterminate future. Two Gents Production was founded in 2008 by Denton…

Come From Away Review
The sold-out, record-breaking musical Come From Away has landed in the UK and you won’t want to miss it! It’s based on the incredible true story of a small town Ganda in Newfoundland, Canada, where 7,000 passengers, aircrew and animals were diverted to when the United States of America closed its airspace during and in the immediate aftermath of the September 11 2001 attacks. Ganda threw open its arms to these ‘come from aways’. The musical commemorates that day whilst celebrating strength of community, friendship, love, unity and humanity. In the current global climate, these messages resonate perhaps more than…
