CORONAVIRUS:All UK venues closed on 16th March 2020 and look like staying closed until March 2021 with the exception of a few, patchy, openings (and subsequent closures) towards the end of 2020. Some open-air, drive-in venues have been opened for periods and many shows are now streaming on-line. Sadly, some venues and shows may not survive. We are updating our listings as much as possible to reflect the changes as they are reported.

17th Oct 20 :: Review: Two Singular Sensations
What a fabulous show. Such a talented duo. It was an absolute delight to see a live show in these troubled times. All our favourite musical extracts and few not so familiar ones. Great entertainment at Haslemere Hall this afternoon and still time to catch this evenings performance if you're quick. Well done!

Amazing performance! The story is great, the actors are so enthusiastic, funny and devilishly wicked. Everything was thought out to the finest detail and I loved every moment. I couldn't get enough ????

12th Mar 20 :: Review: Pride and Prejudice (Sort Of)
Absolutely brilliant! A fantastic romp, fast and furious, with all the wit of the original. The cast covered all the characters with panache. I laughed and laughed! I can't praise it highly enough.

11th Mar 20 :: Review: Dial M for Murder (Playhouse, Salisbury)
Oh dear have I missed something! Acting far too over the top with dramatic gestures very distracting. Film cannot be bettered . This is now creaky and showing its age. Some dialogue very indistinct.

7th Mar 20 :: Review: Jane Eyre (Devonshire Park Theatre, Eastbourne)
Unfortunately the sound was not good and I struggled to hear the performance. A lot of the time the actors had their back to the audience! I am not taking away the fact that the actors all worked very hard but alas I am disappointed.

7th Mar 20 :: Review: Macbeth (Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, West End)
Terrible- supposedly child friendly but a weird mix up of street cultural references with Shakespearean script- confusing and frankly dislikeable. A fantastic way to put a child off Shakespeare. More interesting for th actor / director than the audience. Perhaps it might be fair to consider Shakespeare knew more about entertaining than the contemporary theatrical teams who feel they have to ‘ mix it up’ to make it relevant to a young person. In the words of my son- ( tearfully) it was terrible...
