    With the January blues taking hold, there are worse things you could do (sorry, I couldn't resist) than go and see Grease.

    Review: Dirty Dancing

    The show is still written by Eleanor Bergstein who wrote the movie, it is the same storyline, the same songs (with a few extras thrown in) and the same characters - just a different cast and different medium used to tell the story.

    Review: Legally Blonde the Musical

    Posted on August 24, 2011 | 1 Comment
    Legally Blonde tells the story of Malibu it-girl and fashion merchandising student Elle Woods, who stalks her ex boyfriend to Harvard Law School in order to prove to him she can be ‘serious’. It’s pink, fluffy, furry, glitzy, ditzy and uplifting.

    Review: Excess Baggage

    Posted on August 21, 2011 | No Comments
    Excess Baggage is funny and not very far fetched. I'm sure many people would have said "Sure!" if asked "Can you look after my bag for a minute? I'm just running to the loo."

    Review: The Prodigals

    Posted on August 21, 2011 | No Comments
    The Prodigals is a cut down version of a full-scale musical but what is shown at the Gilded Balloon makes you want to see more. There are great costumes, props, sound and lighting alongside some fantastic choreography and original songs.

        The performance is deeply emotive, with a stark set design and lighting set-up perfectly complementing the tone of the piece.
