21 July 2023 I 19:00 I Savoy Theatre, London ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It is a trend, among other bloggers, to give this play some breathing room after leaving the theatre. A Little Life (from Hanya Yanagihara's novel, adapted by Koen Tachelet) certainly leaves you with a LOT to digest. The whole theatrical experience is something never before seen by audiences internationally. Grief, anger and trauma manifest themselves into the form of the human body, displaying to us the ugly extremities (

5 July 2023 I 19:30 I Bridge Theatre, London ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Immersive theatre is on the rise through recent years, and Nicholas Hytner's production of Guys & Dolls takes an entirely innovative concept in London's Bridge Theatre. The staging can be described as in-the-round, though immersive ticket holders (myself included) are invited into the pit, where platforms of stage rise and fall to suitably reflect shifts in pace, action, location and musicality. Originally performed in 19

21 June 2023 I 19:30 I Lincoln Arts Centre I AD - PR Invite ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All Shook Up, directed by Steve Gillard, sets a premise of an Elvis Presley jukebox musical-comedy, heavily inspired by the twirling and unrequited lovers of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night. On paper, this is a very quirky concept – two stimuli which have very little in common. Joe DiPietro’s book is jam packed with cheeky one liners and an ultimately heart-warming storyline, and tonight, LAODS theatrical com

15 June 2023 I 19:30 I Theatre Royal, Nottingham ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This has been my second time experiencing the stage phenomenon The Ocean At The End Of The Lane, and such spellbinding magic is unparalleled with anything I have ever seen. Adapted from Neil Gaiman's fantasy novel, and under Katy Rudd's direction, the land of the unknown doesn't seek to petrify audiences, rather leaving us curiously unsettled. It still sends shivers as you feel the need to shrink in your seat, where s

8 June 2023 I 14:30 I Victoria Palace Theatre, London ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The musical sensation Hamilton has dominated the theatre scene since its original premiere on Broadway in 2015, created by Lin-Manuel Miranda. Controversially, I had never been a huge fan of the soundtrack, as it wasn't to my music taste. I'd also never streamed the pro-shot because I thought it'd be a show to experience live first-hand. I have been pleasantly surprised by the creativity and uniqueness of Hamilton

3 June 2023 I 14:15 I Curve Theatre, Leicester ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 42nd Street is a historically monumental show, one which from the get go, I had very high expectations for. With an original stage premiere in 1980, the Curve Theatre's adaptation is rejuvenated and modernized. It wants you to believe it is the most expensive show you will ever see, executing this brilliantly without excessive grandeur. With an unbeatable set design from Robert Jones, transitions are glorious to render

6 May 2023 I 14:15 I Curve Theatre, Leicester ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jersey Boys whirls through the story of the rising talents that have come to be known as the Four Seasons, with sensation Frankie Valli leading the group through their turbulent stardom. The most pleasing thing about this biographical production is the precision to detail, and how well they honour their stories without misbalancing anyone's importance in the group. With a story that begins at a lighting pace, the product

21 April 2023 I 20:00 I Lincoln Arts Centre I AD - PR Invite [star rating not applicable] I thoroughly enjoyed this Demo event, a wonderful representation of the Lincoln Arts Centre’s relaunch to celebrate a new generation of rising talent and brand new artistic ideas. It is a pleasure to be returning once more to the LAC, so a huge thank you to the team for having me along. What I find particularly charming about this venue is the contemporary feel, and a clear willing
