Wigston Amateur Operatic Society presents Grease at Little Theatre Review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tickets gifted for review I don’t think anybody needs an introduction into what Grease is all about. It’s Greased Lightning! (And yes, that Greased Lightning mobile makes it on stage at the Little Theatre!). Get your hands at the ready, find your shiniest leather trousers and be prepared to hear some fabulous renditions of…

Bonnie and Clyde review at Theatre Royal, Nottingham
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Raising a little hell this week at Theatre Royal, Nottingham is the exceptional story of Bonnie and Clyde. Perhaps pretty fittingly, Bonnie and Clyde are on the run throughout the U.K. and Ireland, and it is one killer of a show. Rooting for the love story of the anti-heroes, you’ll be in for a…

2:22 (A Ghost Story) Review – Theatre Royal Nottingham
⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 2:22 (a ghost story) is a show that has generated some serious buzz on the West End, especially given it’s constant big-named cast. With the likes of James Buckley (best known for Jay from the Inbetweeners), Lily Allen and Cheryl, from Girls Aloud, it has been a cast of stars. It’s been getting some…

Blood Brothers U.K. Tour Review, Curve Leicester (2024)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Blood Brothers is a must see! I’m not sure if there’s a show that has ever made such a longstanding impact on me than Blood Brothers so attending the press night for it last night was such a full circle moment. It was the first show that i ever saw on the West End,…

⭐⭐⭐⭐ tickets gifted for review We’re off to see the wizard at Nottingham Theatre Royal, and there’s something about The Wizard of Oz that is an instant mood booster. It’s like a comfort show.

Unfortunate: The Untold Story of Ursula The Sea Witch at Curve Theatre, Review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ tickets gifted For a pretty iconic character, Ursula was woefully underrepresented and underused in the story of The Little Mermaid. Plus, we’ve heard what Malifecent had to say, we’ve heard from Cruella, so it’s high time we heard from the queen herself, Ursula. It’s time for Unfortunate. I do need you to know, that…

The Full Monty at Curve Theatre (2024) Review
The beauty in The Full Monty is you can access it on many different levels. Whether you’re there for a girlie evening to clap and ‘woo’ along to the group getting their kit off (with Jake Quickenden pulling in some rather feral screams) or whether you’re there to watch the desperation play out in a…
