Going to gigs a lot is great, keeping ticket stubs is even greater. I’ll happily pay a box office collection or postage fee to get to keep that little piece of paper. However, I’ve now acquired so many stubs that I’m thinking of what to do with them. Currently they are all stacked away neatly.…

Wicked @ Apollo Theatre, 01/10/2015
Wicked, Oh Wicked! Absolutely, magnificently mind-blowing! It deserves all the praise it has gotten and more. It is by far the best thing I have seen in the West End, scratch that, the best thing I’ve seen full stop. If you’re like me, and you like yourself a bit of Oz then this is the…

It’s ABBA time! Everyone knows the songs, and you can’t help but sing along, let’s be honest. To start off, I wasn’t a big fan of the movie Mamma Mia, it was just a bit too over the top and ridiculously badly acted. So, I wasn’t too sure how I was going to feel about…

Matilda @ Cambridge Theatre London, 23/09/2015
Everyone knows the story of Matilda, whether it is through the books or the movie. Remember the little girl who was told by her parents that reading is stupid and who was bullied by her head master? Yes, that Matilda. It’s a successful West End musical, and if you haven’t been – go! Take your…

Carrie Underwood / Apple Music Festival @ Roundhouse, 21/09/2015
First things first: I was absolutely floored by Carrie’s voice. But more on that later. The Apple Music Festival, aka iTunes festival, hosted at the Roundhouse didn’t catch my eye until I heard that Mumford & Sons are playing. It was only then I checked the line-up. The idea is that you can only win…

Future Conditional @ The Old Vic, 14/09/2015
Have you ever seen a play that made your skin tingle? In plain English – goosebumps. This play was one of those. It may be my personal connection to education, nevertheless you will be able to relate to on point or another during the performance. I don’t know much about the British education system other…

It’s been too long since I’ve seen Springsteen live, so a tribute band will have to do. Not usually a big fan of cover bands, but always up for a bit of fun. I was sure to see some of the E-Street fans there, so I knew it would be a good party if nothing…

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory @ Drury Lane Theatre, 08/09/2015
Good morning sunshine, the earth says Hello! Everyone knows the story of Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, whether it is through Roald Dahl’s lovely childrens’ book or both film versions. However, you have seen nothing until you have seen this musical. Honestly. It’s a splash of colour on a rainy day, a truly beautiful story…

Kinky Boots is brand new to the West End and I was super excited to see it. The music is by Cyndi Lauper, so how could anything be bad? And it wasn’t, quite the opposite actually! Kinky Boots is an explosion of striking colors, fabulous fun, and a compelling story all mixed with a splash…
