It feels remiss of me to be writing this so late after the event, but I wanted to acknowledge it anyway seeing as it was my final in person show of this year, before my hometown and the theatre’s locale moved back into Tier 3 restrictions in light of the pandemic that very same evening, […]
Now, I’m on record here and on my podcast staking my claim to Jesus Christ Superstar being my favourite score from Andrew Lloyd Webber, and I will live and die on that hill, but the more I become acquainted with the music and the show, Sunset Boulevard is a very close second. The show first […]
Imagine, if you will, the second lockdown putting pain to the opening of your show a day into rehearsals, and then deciding to put together a filmed version in 3 days. That’s exactly what’s happened with Falling Stars, a new musical revue celebrating the composers, collaborators and publishers of the 1920’s, and the result is […]
[title of show] was one of those that I knew a little about and had seen and heard some good buzz, but it had remained under my radar. I couldn’t see the show when it ran at the Landor with Simon Bailey and Scott Garnham because the space wasn’t accessible to me in my wheelchair, […]
As the UK braces itself for a second national lockdown and my plans for theatre this month (and let’s be realistic, probably longer) have been scuppered and the industry is again plunged into uncertainty, I’m once again reminded of my relationship with theatre as it’s moved from in person to digital.

It feels too late after the event to call this a review, but all the same I wanted to share a piece on what this show means to me. Stuart Matthew Price & Timothy Knapman’s Before After first came into my life back in 2014 – I attended the workshop performance at the St James […]
Peter Polycarpou and Sally Ann Triplett will star in new musical: Falling Stars at London’s Union Theatre this November 22nd & 29th! Concieved and written by Polycarpou, the song cycle celebrates the composers, collaborators and publishers of the 1920’s – Charlie Chaplin, Irving Berlin and Buddy de Silva (to name but a few!) who helped […]
Some of you may remember back in July when I posted an update regarding the ongoing saga of my wheelchair’s seat and my back pain. In that update, I shared that I had an appointment booked provisionally for September to look at my seating, provisionally of course given everything going on with the pandemic. Well, […]
As a theatre fan, lockdown and the pandemic has shown me time and again how much I love and miss the arts industry. It’s where I found my tribe – friends who I share shows with, people whom I admire and love supporting. It gives me a sense of fulfilment where I’m struggling to find […]
