Dracula
10th Apr 25 :: 2

A very stripped back production of the well known story. Not the worst production I've seen by a mile, but there was a lot of moving boxes around for no real reason and dead characters getting up and walking to the back of the stage. Having 6 actors play the whole cast was often quite confusing. I'm not convinced the songs really added anything. The second half was stronger than the first, with a bit of humour injected into quite a sombre script.

Menopause the Musical 2 - Cruising Through Menopause
8th Apr 25 :: 5

What a fabulous show, well done to all the ladies for a GREAT evening of entertainment and fun. If you haven't booked to see the show...do it now. It's a FABULOUS show :)

Plied and Prejudice
23rd Mar 25 :: 5This was such an incredible show! Such a witty and clever script, fantastic direction, the most beautiful sets, and very talented actors! Would absolutely love to go again - this was such a joy!
Pretty Vacant - The Story of Punk and New Wave
10th Feb 25 :: 1

Not for me. It was like watching the covers band that i didn't know i did not want to see. Thankfully they only murdered a snippet of one Ramones song... If you actually like the music, one to avoid.

A Man For All Seasons
7th Feb 25 :: 5

Simply brilliant. Martin Shaw is magnificent as More. He was able to take the audience directly to the centre of the story and delivered a superlative performance. The entire cast were so n their best game and Gary Wilmot as The Common Man was inspired casting. Just superb.

Pretty Vacant - The Story of Punk and New Wave
24th Jan 25 :: 5

Brilliant show. High energy from start to finish. Well worth seeing.

The Snow Queen
28th Dec 24 :: 2

After watching It's a Wonderful Life by this same company last year, we were really hopeful for The Snow Queen to have the same quality. Unfortunately the story just wasn't there. The performance felt really dragged out with multiple scenes that didn't really add anything. The puppetry was well done, but not of enough quantity to save what was a very bland script.

Sleeping Beauty
27th Dec 24 :: 5

Elliott wooster, West End performance!

Robin Hood (Hounslow Arts Centre & Paul Robeson Theatre, Outer London)
21st Dec 24 :: 5

Absolutely brilliant performance

Sara Pascoe - Live at Christmas with Sara Pascoe
19th Dec 24 :: 1

This has to be the worst show ever. They are fraudsters, they claim to be comedians, what a joke! Don't waste your time going to see this bunch.

Spring & Other Things
6th Dec 24 :: 5

So beautiful - totally recommend this show. It�s a must see and Chloe is just incredible to watch.

Hansel and Gretel
28th Nov 24 :: 5

This was an absolutely brilliant show. Fantastic in every way. Witty, modern mesmerising, heartwarming, quirky, fabulously acted, and suitable for all ages. I do not give credit easily, but I would thoroughly recommend this Fantastic show. Hats off to everyone involved in this production but of course the stars of the show are the actors. They have so much talent. I was 110% impressed, wishing that I had brought the whole family. It is a real Christmas treat. Don't miss it. Book now!

Anton Du Beke - Christmas with Anton & Friends
26th Nov 24 :: 5

Full house at Alhambra Dunfermline enjoyed a wonderful show featuring four talented dancers who added gliter and a touch of spice a lovely female singer whose name I did not hear, The inimitable Lance Ellington and the seven piece orchestra and of course Anton who was in top form. There was audience participation with the singing, some spectacular dancing and the whole performance appeared spontaneous despite being well rehearsed. The Twelve days of Christmas was worthy of the best of pantomimes and was one of many highlights in a really good nights entertainment
