WNO Madam Butterfly
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Emotional, thought-provoking and a clever 21st Century adaptation Lindy Hume has directed this production and brings with it a real female take on Madam Butterfly and it is incredibly well received with many giving a standing ovation at the end.

Footloose
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Energetic, fun and a little bit naughty” is the best way to describe this production of Footloose which is currently at The Alexandra Theatre until Saturday 23rd April 2022.
