The Sound of Music at Curve Review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I was meant to watch The Sound of Music at Curve Theatre in Leicester with my mum and I feel that I’m going to have an element of emotional bias here, because I know she would’ve absolutely adored it. I left the theatre feeling grateful I went and yearning to go again before the…

Grease at Kilworth House Review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Running until 7 September 2025 Kilworth House Theatre has simply done it again. Grease is an absolute knockout. Full of energy, charm, and pure feel-good excellence. From the second you arrive, the atmosphere hits different. Outdoor theatre is simply divine, and Grease is the perfect show for it. Some of the cast are already…

Addams Family Review at Curve Theatre
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I went into The Addams Family at Curve expecting a fun night out, and that’s exactly what I got. It delivered. It’s good surface-level entertainment. The story doesn’t go deep, but the cast bring it to life with a lot of charm and energy. The design is slick, the pace keeps things moving, and…

Calamity Jane at Curve Review (2025)
I wasn’t convinced Calamity Jane was going to my favourite kind of show and if I’m completely honest, I wasn’t too wrong. Nevertheless, I went in with an open mind and there’s no denying it’s a brilliantly energetic production with some toe-tapping tunes albeit they do get repetitive with reprises aplenty. Though, from the first…

Indigo at Curve Theatre
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Don’t watch Indigo UNLESS you want to open your mind, challenge your perspective, and learn something deeply moving about neurodivergence… in a show that also happens to be brilliantly funny, emotionally rich, and visually stunning. It is a show that has helped me pick up some new tips for working with teens who are…

Muriel’s Wedding Review at Curve, Leicester
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Muriel might be terrible, but Muriel’s Wedding is far from it. Muriel’s Wedding quite simply is a triumph. A glittering, laugh-out-loud spectacle that bottles sunshine and brings it to life in full theatrics. Opening the show with Sunshine State of Mind was apt on a gloriously sunny heatwave evening. Running until 10 May 2025,…

Tina – The Tina Turner Musical at Curve, Leicester
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An electric celebration of Tina Turner’s discography and rise to stardom. I knew Tina Turner had a turbulent relationship with her husband, Ike Turner but I wasn’t fully aware of just how much of a struggle Tina Turner, born Anna Mae Bullock preserved. At the hands of her husband, and her mother, Tina Turner…

&Juliet Review at Curve, Leicester 2025
Nothing short of genius ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I could end the review right here and say it’s the best new show I’ve watched in a very long time. But & Juliet deserves more than just a single line of praise—it’s a joyous piece of theatre with storytelling that will leave you grinning from ear to ear. This…
