Review: Just So Festival, Rode Hall, Cheshire
Where to start. This is the hardest of reviews to write because I really don’t know what to tell you about the weekend we’ve just had.
Review: CBBC Summer Social, Croxteth Country Park, Liverpool
In the build-up to CBBC’s inaugural three-day Summer Social at Croxteth Country Park, much of the chatter on the local parental grapevine was about one subject: cost.
Review: The Big I Am, Everyman, Liverpool
The Big I Am ends with an over-long musing about death and the non-existence of God.
Food Review: Alma de Cuba, Liverpool
When I told friends that my husband and I were heading for dinner at Alma de Cuba, more than one of them said, in effect, “why?”
Review: Othello, Liverpool Everyman
It is the fate of Golda Rosheuvel that her gender will be the first thing that many people comment upon when critiquing her performance as Othello.
Review: A Clockwork Orange, Everyman Theatre, Liverpool
There are two stars of this Everyman production of Anthony Burgess’s cult novel, A Clockwork Orange.
Theatre Review: George’s Marvellous Medicine, Liverpool Playhouse
Ok that’s it. From now on, all children’s theatre productions need to feature giant humanoid chickens with a steampunk aesthetic and fabulous comic timing.
Review: Paint Your Wagon, Everyman, Liverpool
I can see the temptation. Fiddler on the Roof was a rousing fanfare to herald the arrival of last year’s Everyman Compann, the comeback after a long absence of a distinguished theatrical institution welcomed with song, dance and critical acclaim.
Review: The Wedding, Liverpool Playhouse
Three star reviews can be a cop out. I worked for one editor who unofficially banned them. They can mean fence-sitting; not-committing; bet-hedging.
