And the shows available for you to stream just keep rolling in. One of the only positives I can see about this whole thing right now is that people who might not usually get the opportunity to go to the theatre (too far away, too expensive) have the chance to see some of the bestContinue reading “More places to stream shows this Easter Sunday (and beyond) #CultureInQuarantine #staycreative”

Review: 5***** Cirque Du Solei 60 minute special 27th March 2020 #cirqueconnect @Cirque #staycreative #CultureInQuarantine
There are now many plays and musicals being streamed access the internet but sometimes we all need a bit of variety. You need something you can just watch and enjoy, something where you do not have to follow a complicated story, or get heavily invested in the lives of the characters on stage only forContinue reading “Review: 5***** Cirque Du Solei 60 minute special 27th March 2020 #cirqueconnect @Cirque #staycreative #CultureInQuarantine”
Review: 2** Soap at Underbelly @UnderbellyFest #soap
#Tweetingit – 2** promised to make us wet with excitement. Left us damp and disappointed. The programme promised a lot. A unique combination of world-class acrobatics, comedy and live opera performed in, on and around bathtubs. Quite a bold claim to make, and whilst technically not wrong this just didn’t add up to an entertainingContinue reading “Review: 2** Soap at Underbelly @UnderbellyFest #soap”
Review: 3*** Circus Abyssinia at Underbelly Festival @UnderbellyFest @CircusAbyssinia
The programme tells us that Circus Abyssinia explores a journey of wonders for two little Ethiopian brothers, a surreal explanation of how brothers Bibi and Bichu Tesfamariam found the joy of performing with the circus. The troupe are formed from students at the circus school they founded in Addis Ababa and range in age fromContinue reading “Review: 3*** Circus Abyssinia at Underbelly Festival @UnderbellyFest @CircusAbyssinia ”

Review: 4**** Becoming Shades – The Vaults Festival Chivaree Circus @Chivaree_Circus @VAULTFestival
#Tweetingit – A feminist retelling of a classic tale complete with breathtaking acrobatics, and strength from the performers that appears to know no bounds. The Waterloo Vaults are quite the experience; a rabbit warren of rooms, bars, dens and cubbies to watch plays, immerse yourself in an adventure and sit with friends to have aContinue reading “Review: 4**** Becoming Shades – The Vaults Festival Chivaree Circus @Chivaree_Circus @VAULTFestival”
Review: 4**** Hotel Black Cat @LdnWonderground @cabaretblackcat
We went to see Hotel Black Cat on 24 June 2016. It was possibly not the best day for leaving the house – both of us were feeling decidedly dejected, not to mention sleep deprived, having watched the results of the referendum roll in all night long. I walked into the show feeling heavy hearted,Continue reading “Review: 4**** Hotel Black Cat @LdnWonderground @cabaretblackcat”
