The Color Purple
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sometimes you see a show and you don’t just see it, you feel it. The Color Purple is that show. The rawness, the connections of the cast, the beauty in the voices, I felt all of it last night. Director Tinuke Craig has directed a musical that I now consider a favourite. I stood…

Les Misérables ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The ultimate musical for everyone aged 8 and above, currently playing at Birmingham Hippodrome until 27th August 2022. For a show that, let’s face it, is filled with sadness.

The Cher Show ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
As a fan of Cher whilst growing up (I was born in 1984 and loved listening to her music in the car on family trips out), I was absolutely over the moon when The Cher Show was created (Broadway 2018) and then announced its tour was coming to Europe including Birmingham Hippodrome (you can catch…
Some Mothers Do’Ave’Em ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
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….
