I reviewed this musical for Everything Theatre: When you’re planning to trek across London from Wapping to Wandsworth for a show, it better be a damn good show. A Catered Affair is just that. From my admittedly rather swift glance at the promotional material I had the impression this would be a frothy little musical … Continue reading

A Catered Affair, London Theatre Workshop – Review for Everything Theatre
I reviewed this musical for Everything Theatre: When you’re planning to trek across London from Wapping to Wandsworth for a show, it better be a damn good show. A Catered Affair is just that.

Best of Friends review for Everything Theatre
I reviewed Best of Friends for Everything Theatre recently: The Landor is one of the best pub/theatre setups I’ve yet seen. The cozy bar downstairs full of squashy couches and mismatched chairs looks like a great place to while away a weekend afternoon, and there’s even a garden if it’s sunny. In the upstairs theatre, The … Continue reading

I had the great good fortune to see The Mikado last night at the English National Opera. I always delight in seeing the inside of a new theatre as well as the production itself, and this was my first visit to the London Coliseum.
