Echobelly at the Electric Ballroom – 16/10/25
It’s not been long since the last time we went to a 90s album playthrough at the Electric Ballroom – in fact, it’s been a matter of weeks. That last playthrough was a little shambolic so, as much as I … Continue reading
“Kurt Cobain Unplugged” at the Royal College of Music – 10/09/25
What to do with a day’s annual leave during a tube strike? Well, if you’re a sensible person you stay home and maybe have a nice walk in the forest. If you’re me, you force your husband to spend many … Continue reading
August Bonanza – Club de Evita-Feel-Gatsby
It’s very nearly the end of August. Whether this brings joy or despair to your heart probably depends on whether your child is climbing up the walls with summer holiday boredom or whether they’re living their best life in pyjamas … Continue reading

“The Mousetrap” at St Martin’s Theatre – 25/08/25
Now, I’m not sure what you’re expecting from a review of a 73-year-old play but I’ll tell you what you’re not going to get – spoilers. There’s a tradition of keeping the Whodunnit in this Whodunnit under wraps and I … Continue reading

Terrific Tenerife#2 – We’ll All Go to Raging Waters
Now, I didn’t mean to make this holiday into two posts as it was really quite a straightforward week of lounging about. But turns out I can write a lot of words about that BAU lounging without getting on to … Continue reading
Terrific Tenerife#1 – The Tide is High
So, I’ve been on a Jet2 holiday. My children inform me that this is some kind of meme nowadays and I’d like to be able to say that we went the full week without ever hearing that jingle…but that would … Continue reading
“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” at the Ambassadors Theatre – 26/07/25
It seems that I have once more been the victim of Facebook advertising. Sooner or later I need to admit that it is *me* that is the problem, not Facebook. No one is forcing me to buy these tickets. All … Continue reading
“Hercules” at Theatre Royal, Drury Lane – 18/07/25
Ah, Theatre Royal Drury Lane we meet again! You of the beautiful staircases and the name which makes for awkwardly long post titles? And where better to stage a Grecian epic than in somewhere with this carpet? So it’s a … Continue reading
Summer in the City
I mean, not the City as in the Square Mile. That’s not a great place to spend any swelteringly hot days unless you’re inside an airconditioned office. Although I did see an exciting Superman-themed pop up booth outside Liverpool Street … Continue reading
