“Much Ado About Nothing” by East London Shakespeare Festival – 08/07/24
This is our third visit to an ELSF production in Highams Park. The first year was “Twelfth Night” in blazing sunshine, to the point that we were having to create shade for the kids to sit in: Last year was … Continue reading
Fox in a Box Escape Rooms – 16/06/24

So this might be an unusual post for me because I’ve got lots of pictures and not too much to say whereas I normally rabbit on for pages about complete nonsense. This time though, the story is simple – we … Continue reading
“Playing Shakespeare with Deutsche Bank: Romeo and Juliet” at The Globe – 03/04/24
It’s funny – when someone mentions a modern-day adaptation of “Romeo and Juliet”, a lot of people my age will automatically think of the 1996 Baz Luhrmann version. I even saw it mentioned on Facebook just the other day. But … Continue reading
