“The Everywhere Bear” at Little Angel Theatre – 10/02/24
This is the second time I’ve been to see “The Everywhere Bear” so please forgive me if I repeat myself. I feel like I do that a lot anyway. The first time was during a particularly traumatic week in 2018 … Continue reading
Natural History Museum and “My Neighbour Totoro” at the Barbican – 27/01/24
If you think that title is long, then let me assure you that the day that went with it was every bit as long. I’m still recovering from it now…or not, as the case may be. The Yorkshire Folk were … Continue reading

“The Toymaker’s Child” at Chickenshed – 29/11/23

“Romeo and Juliet” by East London Shakespeare Festival – 22/07/23
Another week, another outdoor Shakespeare in the rain. Last week’s productions in Stratford-Upon-Avon did their best to rain on us and drown the actors’ voices out with howling winds but this week’s production really did bring on the tempest. We’re … Continue reading
A Shakespearean Jaunt Part 2 – 16/07/23
My powers of self-control are as good as ever and I managed to ramble on for a thousand words about just one day in Stratford-Upon-Avon. So I cut it off and here’s your Part 2. I know…you’ve been on tenterhooks. … Continue reading
A Shakespearean Jaunt Part 1 – 15/07/23
A few years ago I was reading “The Swish of the Curtain” to Eva and we both enjoyed the chapter where the Bishop takes the Blue Doors to Stratford Upon Avon and Maddie scandalises the dining room by telling everyone … Continue reading
“The Wolves in the Walls” at Little Angel Theatre – 20/05/23
We have a bit of history with this particular production. When I received the invite, I had a weird feeling of deja vu and when I checked back, my suspicions were confirmed – we were due to go and see … Continue reading
The Most Matilda Weekend
Ever since the movie version of “Matilda: The Musical” came out earlier this year, Eva has been kind of obsessed with it. So for her birthday, I promised to take her and CousinZ to the theatre show. It was only … Continue reading
