This inaugural […]
‘Laughing Boy’ Jermyn Street Theatre – Review
Outstanding, put simply. Book. Go, see it. Five stars. Or you can read the rest of this, and a few other reviews, linked below. And find it’s sold out. Up to you. Stella Powell-Jones and David Doyle continue to raise the bar, already set high for Jermyn Street Theatre by Tom Littler (late of this […]

Winter Lights: Blown With the Wind
The Winter Lights 2024 Festival in Canary Wharf is set to last for 11 days in total … and I easily picked the worst day to attend. Sunday morning surprised all with a noticeable temperature increase and alluring sunshine. So the idea of travelling across all of the city from Harrow to Canary Wharf in […]
‘Emma Smith: Meshuga Baby’ JW3 – Review
Let’s get to the point. This lady is an entertainer, a wonderful talent with a smile to fill the Albert Hall. Yeah, ok, so JW3 don’t yet know what jazz is, or how to fire up a loud speaker, or make a microphone work, but is that gonna phase our Emma? Nah. With an enthusiasm […]
‘Makeshifts & Realities’ Finborough Theatre – Review
I know, right? Another four star threesome. At my age! Funny to think that way back in the 1900’s, the drudgery of everyday spinsterism was made bearable by fantasies of escape at the rough hand of rogues and spivs! Who knew then that people even today would seek diversion from the dull hand they have […]
‘Jules & Jim’ and ‘The Retreat’ – a couple of threesomes.
Two threesomes in one week. I guess I’ve still got it. I’m talking about Jules & Jim at The Jermyn Street Theatre and The Retreat at The Finborough. Jules & Jim is based on Henri-Pierre Roché’s eponymous book behind the Truffaut film of the same name. This take is written by the UK’s very own […]

‘But I’m a Cheerleader!’ Turbine Theatre – Review
Funny couple of days. Went to the Harrow Choir concert the other night. New choir master Sam Evans squeezed magic from voices for an audience of rather old people. And I mean old! Yep – even older than me. And I’m old. (In the old days I wasn’t, but I guess they caught up). And […]
