I’ve been trying to make a bit more of an effort on here and my podcast to be more open about my disability and how it affects me, and this particular show seemed like the perfect place to do that! So, let’s rewind a couple weeks back to the 7th where I headed back to […]
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 […]
Southwark Playhouse announced today that Before After, a musical love story by Stuart Matthew Price & Timothy Knapman will be live streamed from their space The Little for three performances this September 25th and 26th as a rehearsed reading starring husband and wife Hadley Fraser and Rosalie Craig. Ami meets Ben by a tree on […]
As always, this year I’ve had the pleasure of seeing some incredible pieces of theatre, and with the year soon coming to a close, I wanted to take the time to celebrate my favourites I’ve seen this year. There’s dance and more plays as well as musicals, as this year I made a more concerted […]
It was announced last week that the Broadway smash hit Moulin Rouge would be making its way to this side of the pond; and though we have to wait until 2021, I was overjoyed by the news, for two reasons: its at a theatre I really like in terms of my seat and as is […]
I came to Terence Rattigan’s 1952 play The Deep Blue Sea in a bit of a roundabout way – I saw the 2011 film adaptation starring Rachel Weisz, Tom Hiddleston and Simon Russell Beale which I adored, and it encouraged me to read the play. Over the years, I’ve revisited it multiple times and its […]
This one must begin with a shout out to my dear friend and fellow blogger, Olivia, who pointed me in its direction! You can read her answers here: https://thoughtsofablueeyedgirl.wordpress.com/2018/06/23/musical-theatre-challenge/?preview=true (and give her a follow while you’re there, she’s brilliant 😉 ) Being the massive musical theatre fan I am, it would be silly to not […]
In my ongoing resolution to support new work, I’m going to start by taking you on a little trip down memory lane. Some of you might recall that back in September 2014, I travelled to London to see the premiere of a new musical in its workshop format by actor, producer and composer Stuart Matthew […]
One of my self-inflicted shortcomings as a theatre fan is that I feel I don’t see enough plays. People often joke at my taste, because those plays I do enjoy most are quite dark and more character driven rather than action packed, and I’ve always had a love of weighty themes and never a fear […]
