Review: Disney on Ice – 100 Years of Magic, Manchester Arena
When after 15 minutes a six-year-old Snow White in the adjacent seat politely enquires as to whether she can have a sandwich, you know that the current iteration of Disney on Ice is not quite as captivating as it might be.
Theatre Review: Tabby McTat, Everyman, Liverpool
Stage adaptations of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s hugely popular children’s books are so ubiquitous these days that they should probably be categorised as their own sub-genre of theatre.
Theatre Review: Little Miss Sunshine, Playhouse, Liverpool
Full disclosure: I have not in fact seen the Oscar-winning film on which Little Miss Sunshine the musical is based.
Review: Just So Festival, Rode Hall, Cheshire
The average Just So parent, judging by appearances, is of approximately the correct vintage for Glastonbury 1997 to be a resonant pop culture reference.
Food Review: Pie Port, Anchor Courtyard, Royal Albert Dock, Liverpool
Full disclosure: I have emotional skin in the game here.
Review: Lush Spa, Church Street, Liverpool
In the past, I was never an enormous fan of Lush.
Theatre Review: Cooped, Liverpool Playhouse
Cooped is something akin to the best bad am-dram theatre production you’ve ever seen.
Theatre Review: Chekhov’s First Play, Liverpool Playhouse
There are productions for which the business of rating by stars can feel reductive. This is one of them.
Food Review: Stanley’s Bar and Grill, The Titanic Hotel, Liverpool
Foolhardy, perhaps, for an establishment called Titanic to describe anything as a launch.
