House number 13 isn’t your average house. It starts with the door, hand crafted by Frank (Joe Pasquale) himself – lacking a letter box (don’t worry, it is on Frank’s list of jobs to do) and then you’ll find the door bell can only be turned off by tapping a certain way on the walls….

Guys and Dolls ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This evening I attended the press night for Guys and Dolls, a BMOS Musicals production at The Alexandra Theatre Birmingham and to say I was blown away was a complete understatement.
