Review of Kika’s Birthday at Little Angel Theatre
Danyah Miller loves performing and storytelling. This was absolutely obvious when I watched Kika’s Birthday at the Little Angel Theatre with my six-year-old boy. A story about Kika, a little French mouse, who is going to be 5 years old! Her family has planned a birthday surprise. The decorated theatre was suitable to grab the attention of the young children in the audience. Where should the children look, at the bunting that dangles from the ceiling and walls, or at the colourful balloons, … [Read more...]
Review of Michael Rosen’s Chocolate Cake at Polka Theatre
Chocolate cake… yum, who does not love chocolate cake! This 50-minute production of Chocolate Cake is absolutely delightful, it tickled all of my senses. Well done Polka Theatre.

Even though the play is aimed at four-year-olds and above, I believe it would capture the attention of much younger children too. There is something for all ages, descending bubbles that children reach out to … [Read more...]

I sort of got the idea something was different when I walked into the auditorium and saw just … [Read more...]
Review of Rapunzel at The Rayne Theatre – Chickenshed
Here I am at The Rayne Theatre at Chickenshed, reviewing a preview of ‘A New Musical Rapunzel’. This traditional story has been turned on its head and something a bit different has been created. In a large attic of a house on the outskirts of London, Hazel (played by Cerys Lambert) along with six children fall asleep reading fairy tales. Suddenly they are in Hazel’s wonderful and frightening dream, where she is Rapunzel. She is locked in a tower in the magical woods and is desperate to be … [Read more...]
