Review of Cinderella at The Marlowe Theatre in Canterbury

November 28, 2018 Last updated: November 28, 2018 4:05 pm By MissJulie

Cinderella Canterbury Panto- Pamela Raith Photography

The Christmas season is upon us once again, but forget about Santa and presents and mince pies. This means it’s also panto season (oh yes it is!). The Marlowe Theatre is back in fine form again this year with a fun-filled telling of the timeless classic, Cinderella. Paul Hendy’s energetic production is a fantastic affair with the perfect blend of both traditional and modern. There are all the usual bits you’d expect from any panto such as ghosts in the woods, outrageously silly costumes, … [Read more...]

Of Mice and Men – Marlowe Theatre Canterbury – Review

February 3, 2018 Last updated: August 30, 2019 5:23 pm By MissJulie

A poignant and powerful story set in the hard times of the Great Depression, and with themes still just as relevant today as they were eighty years ago, its lasting success and appeal is celebrated in this all-new stage revival by Selladoor Productions. In association with The Marlowe Theatre, the production embarks on a ten-week UK tour by opening at the … [Read more...]

Marlowe Panto

We’ll have to do it again then, won’t we! Yes, it’s that time of year once again and panto season is well and truly upon us, heralding the approach of Christmas with jeers, cheers and cries of “It’s behind you!”. The Marlowe Theatre in Canterbury slightly veers from the typical pantomime this year with a truly unique take on Peter Pan, but one which pays off magnificently as Paul Hendy’s production is a magical feat of sheer brilliance and wonder. David Ribi as the adventurous Peter Pan … [Read more...]
