And thence from Athens turn away our eyes
To seek new friends and stranger companies.’

‘Now pile your dust upon the quick and dead,
Till, of this flat, a mountain you have made
To o'ertop old Pelion, or the skyish head
Of blue Olympus.’

Deep Azure
Incredible play with an astounding cast.
This was written by the late Chadwick Boseman and it shows how great he was. Lyrical, touching, funny and … just so good to watch.
Modern Shakespeare with a deft touch.

Arcadia
Managed to snaffle one of the last tickets of the run the morning of!
Another great show.
This was so clever and interesting too. Loved the staging and the plot and the cast were fab.
View from my seat of the stage at The Rose Theatre. A single stepladder on a fairly bare stage in the middle of six flat planks of wood. At the back is a hedge.
Cast of Our Town starting Michael Sheen who is in the centre wearing black.

Our Town
This was so good. Michael Sheen is outstanding as the ‘stage manager’ telling the tale of a small town in the early 1900’s. Strong ensemble cast too.

Shadowlands
Great performances and interactions, although the play is a little ponderous for me. Hugh Bonneville was excellent in the lead role.
We Will Rock You
Absurd plot line but this was so much fun. Great night watching and listening to a talented cast belt out Queen songs.

Titanique
Retelling of Titanic with ‘Celine Dion’ Quite brilliant in its ridiculousness and everyone gave their all. Thoroughly enjoyed myself.
Vocals were superb especially from Astrid Harris as Dion and Madison Swann as Molly.
Strong rec

Lost Atoms
Great performances from the actors; their movement was amazing and I loved the staging. A little overlong in the first act although the pace picked up in the second act.

The Constant Wife
A lot of fun and some laugh out loud moments Kara Tointon was a stand out star.
Ballad Lines
Wonderful new musical set in 1600’s Scotland, 1900’s Ireland and present day New York.

The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry
This was rather whimsical and touching. Jenna Russell was very good in the role of the wife left behind. The darker edge running through the show crept up on me. Great performances and staging

Every four years I become slightly obsessed with the Winter Olympics, becoming an expert in everything, and then forget it all as soon as it’s over.
Just switched on Winter Olympics women’s downhill skiing and seen a horrific crash. Everyone looks and sounds horribly shaken.

A green chocolate boxes with a golden ribbon and full of various shiny chocolates.
February is here, which somehow makes Valentine’s Day feel suddenly very close.
If you’re looking for a thoughtful gift, my chocolate boxes are always a good bet. 🍫
They make a lovely Valentine’s gift, whether it’s for someone else or very deliberately for yourself.

Cast of Man & Boy on a light up screen
Curtain call for Man & Boy featuring Ben Daniels and Laurie Kynastan
Man & Boy
After seeing and then being in a Rattigan play, I couldn’t resist this one especially as it started Ben Daniels, whom I’d seen in Medea. He has such stage presence. Laurie Kynastan was great too. Play is dark and demands your focus.

Nigel Farage is going to "save pubs" by cutting 5p off the price of a pint of beer...
The £3 billion cost will be funded by reinstating the two-child benefit limit.
This might be the worst policy anyone has ever come up with.
