Theatre Review: Us Against Whatever, Everyman, Liverpool
If a British-Polish lesbian romance mixed with Hull City’s promotion to the Premier League and Brexit sounds like an unlikely recipe for a coherent piece of musical theatre, that’s because it is.
Review: The Oakfield, Chester Zoo
There are many things to be spied at Chester Zoo. Some are majestic – a lioness roaring, or a male orangutan lumbering around his enclosure – and others are merely predictable.
Theatre Review: Big Up! Unity Theatre, Liverpool
Five stars for a performance that was funnier, more engaging and more inventive than virtually any theatre production aimed at young children I’ve ever seen?
Theatre Review: A Christmas Carol, Playhouse, Liverpool
If Vic and Bob wrote a panto and had it produced by the League of Gentleman and performed by the cast of Big Train, it would probably look a bit like Spymonkey’s Christmas Carol.
Theatre Review: Stick Man, The Lowry, Salford
Roll up, families seeking a pre-schooler-friendly Christmas production without a cast full of X Factor semi-finalists and too many flashing lights.
Theatre Review: The Snow Queen, Everyman, Liverpool
It takes a brave panto producer to take a much-loved fairytale – the very same one, no less, that CBeebies used for their own televised Christmas stage show last year – and mess about with it quite as much as the Everyman has for this year’s festive rock ‘n’ roll offering.
Review: The Monster Halloween Ball, Sefton Park Palm House, Liverpool
There is very little not to like about a three-year-old dressed as a witch doing the Time Warp.
Theatre Review: The Animals and Children Took to the Streets, Liverpool Playhouse
It is barely 70 minutes long and its constituent parts are a trio of women with white-painted faces, an unseen piano and some cartoons.
