Review of Spamalot Playhouse Theatre London July 2013

July 8, 2013 Last updated: May 6, 2019 11:28 pm By Neil Cheesman

Spamalot

Spamalot is currently playing at The Playhouse Theatre, which is situated about two minutes’ walk from the Embankment Underground and the River Thames; perfect for including some sight-seeing with your theatre trip. The theatre itself is rather beautiful and has a gorgeous, sweeping, classic red stage curtain that I completely fell in love with. The seats were, also, very comfy and I had a perfect view from where I was sitting (F14). The only down side I could find with the theatre is that due … [Read more...]

Review of The Matchgirls

July 5, 2013 Last updated: September 17, 2015 7:03 pm By Alan Franks

Matchgirls

John Wilton could not have foreseen this when he built his East London music hall more than one hundred and fifty years ago, but it would become the perfect setting for a musical about one of the most dramatic episodes in the evolution of industrial relations, the matchgirls’ strike of 1888. Partially upstaged by the dockers’ actions the following year, the girls’ walkout from the grim Bryant and May factory in Bow was the more audacious of the two, flying in the face of two prevailing … [Read more...]

Review of Miss Nightingale The Burlesque Musical

July 3, 2013 Last updated: May 8, 2019 3:16 pm By Emma Slater

Miss Nightingale

Sing, sweet nightingale… The tagline for new musical Miss Nightingale: Sex, Scandal and Showbiz, conjures visions of a raunchy, salacious performance: exciting for the eye, glitz and glamour prioritized over storyline. But though enticing, the tagline perhaps doesn’t do the show justice. This is more than just a spectacle; it’s a moving, funny and grounded tale of taboos and prejudice in Britain during the Second World War. The different musical genres included in the show: from jazz to ballad, … [Read more...]

The Mermaid of Zennor by Moon on a Stick Productions

June 28, 2013 Last updated: September 10, 2015 12:22 am By Haydn James

Mermaid

Until now I had never been to the Rosemary Branch in North London, in fact I have never been to any pub theatre at all. The atmosphere was very relaxed, the same was to be said of the staff, I was greeted and served as if I was one of their friends and seeing as I was alone, this made me feel very comfortable. When I entered the theatre space I was pleasantly surprised, as it was very intimate and inviting. When I took my seat I slowly became aware of the soundtrack being played, sounds of … [Read more...]

Review of Mamma Mia! Novello Theatre London

June 27, 2013 Last updated: May 6, 2019 2:50 pm By Sahil Jon

Mamma Mia!

Prior to the commencement of this evening’s performance of Mamma Mia!, the atmosphere at the Novello Theatre was something I had never felt before. Perhaps it was because this was my first time attending this type of musical. In anticipatory nature, the audience members around me had comfortably taken their seats with smiles that suggested they knew what was coming; they knew that they were about to escape into a world full of foot-tapping music, cheesy dance steps, and ultimate female power. … [Read more...]

Review of The Four Farces at Wilton’s Music Hall

June 19, 2013 Last updated: September 17, 2015 6:39 pm By Genni Trickett

Four Farces

Wilton’s Music Hall has the distinction of being the only surviving original music hall in London. Tucked away down an unassuming pedestrian side street near St Katharine’s Dock, it has been quietly mouldering away for years; its once glorious covings and cornices crumbling away, its vivid paintwork fading to grey. However, it was not forgotten; a mighty repair project was launched last year to get Wilton’s back on its cultural feet and the great hall, with its air of dilapidated, nostalgic … [Read more...]

Socrates And His Clouds Jermyn Street Theatre

June 7, 2013 Last updated: September 17, 2015 6:30 pm By Genni Trickett

Socrates

Socrates And His Clouds by The Meddlers Theatre Company, Jermyn Street Theatre The playwright and philosophy teacher William Lyons has loosely based his new play upon Aristophanes’s Clouds. Inspired also by Plato’s Dialogues, he has given a new twist to the great man himself which alters both the interaction between the protagonists and the overall ambiance of the play. Rest assured, an in-depth knowledge of philosophy is not a pre-requisite to enjoy this performance; the writing is … [Read more...]

We’ll Always Have Paris – The Mill at Sonning

This play was first put on at The Mill at Sonning in early 2010 - the world has, of course, changed significantly since then, and the script has been … [Read More...]

Swamp Motel Presents: Saint Jude

I always loved Choose Your Own Adventure books. Definitely not the Steve Jackson ones where you had to roll dice (who did that?) to find out whether … [Read More...]

PICASSO at The Playground Theatre

Well, there’s a bit about Pablo Picasso’s (1881-1973) paintings in this show that bears his name. But it’s mostly about his approach towards women. … [Read More...]
