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”

So first, am I strongContinue reading “Review: 4**** Revolution – The Vaults @exitprodu @VAULTfestival”

Preview: Dinner with the Twits @Twitsdinner @TheVaultsUk @BompasandParr
“You are cordially invited to the worst dinner party in the world, at the residence of the revolting Mr and Mrs Twit” Usually, when my less known-for-their-culinary-skills friends invite me for dinner, I suggest we treat ourselves to take away or go out instead but on this occasion, things are, surprisingly, different.
