The Studio@620 is an arts gallery and performance space which hosts a diverse range of programmes, including the exhibition of Willful Encounters (at a bus stop) by artist Maria … Continue reading

It’s rare to see a one-woman show that so fully gives the sense of many different personalities interacting. Griffiths is also the mastermind behind the outlandish yet … Continue reading

My neighbours Paul (of Pootling Around fame) and Hannah and I decided that we couldn’t possibly miss this opportunity to express our Francophile tendencies (not to mention … Continue reading

I reviewed the Merely Shakespeare Company’s As You Like It at the Cockpit Theatre for Everything Theatre last week: The Cockpit’s ambitious summer venture involves a company of 20 actors performing a different Shakespeare play each month for one night only, with As You Like It being the penultimate in the series. The Merely Shakespeare Company … Continue reading
