Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour at Wembley: An Enchanting Celebration of Music and Fandom
Taylor Swift: The Era's Tour
Wembley Stadium
The biggest show in the world right now is undoubtedly Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, which has taken everything and everyone by storm. I’d heard incredible things and knew it would be good, but I wasn’t quite prepared for just how extraordinary it would be. As the confetti rained down and the final notes of 'Karma' rang out, I realised I’d just experienced something life-changing- an event that will stay with me forever. Over the course of three and a half hours, Taylor Swift delivered a performance that was nothing short of mesmerising, uniting a crowd of 92,000 people through her sheer talent and undeniable magnetism.
The Eras Tour, featuring over 50 songs, is a testament to Taylor’s remarkable journey, spanning her early country roots to her chart-topping pop hits and beyond. The scale of her fame is truly unparalleled, yet she carries it with effortless grace, infusing her performance with joy, playfulness, and an infectious energy that makes the entire experience feel both intimate and monumental.
Everything about The Eras Tour is big and bold. Every detail, from the intricately designed sets- such as a Folklore-inspired house and giant floating clouds- to the impeccable lighting, was executed to perfection. The visuals were stunning, creating a dynamic and immersive atmosphere that felt like a cinematic masterpiece come to life. It’s difficult to convey the impact of certain moments, but it’s truly a heart-pounding, adrenaline-fuelled experience from start to finish.
What truly stood out was the sense of community that permeated the entire event. In a world where division and isolation often dominate, this show reminded us of the power of music to bring people together. The Eras Tour wasn’t just a concert; it was a celebration of fandom. The collective energy of the audience, singing along to every word, dancing, and sharing in the moment, was a powerful reminder of music's unifying force. If you could bottle up and share the joy that a Taylor Swift concert creates, the world would be a much brighter place.
Taylor herself is unlike anyone I’ve ever seen before. Her presence on stage is magnetic and powerful, yet she brings touches of her characteristic goofiness and fun, with quirky little movements and facial expressions that make her feel relatable and endearing. Seeing her give so much on stage was inspiring, and I am more in awe than ever after witnessing her not miss a beat.
The level of pressure that comes with Taylor’s immense fame is unimaginable, yet she manages it with poise, delivering a performance that feels both grand and personal. Her ability to connect with the audience on such a deep level, while maintaining her superstar status, is truly remarkable.
As we left Wembley, there was a collective sense that we had just witnessed something truly special—an artist at the peak of her powers, giving her all to a crowd that was there for every beat, every lyric, every moment. This show proved why Taylor Swift is the word on everyone’s lips right now: She is the music industry. She’s a cultural phenomenon. She's the moment, and every moment that’s coming. She’s the embodiment of a star, and we are incredibly fortunate to witness her brilliance. Long Live The Eras Tour.

Unforgettable Moments at BST Hyde Park: Stevie Nicks and Harry Styles Live
Stevie Nicks
Hyde Park
To put it lightly, last night at BST Hyde Park was nothing short of magical. Like many, seeing Stevie Nicks perform was a bucket list event for me, so finally getting to see her was a dream come true and the night was a true testament to the enduring power and charisma of the legendary performer. The atmosphere was electric, filled with a sense of history and excitement that only intensified as the evening progressed. The fully female lineup for the day added an extra layer of significance and empowerment to the event which will go down in the memory of so many.
The day kicked off for me with the vibrant Catty on the Rainbow Stage. Her energy was infectious, and her vocals were stunningly strong. Each note she sang was filled with emotion, showcasing her undeniable talent. It's clear that this is just the beginning of an incredible career for her. I feel lucky to have witnessed her early steps and can't wait to see where she goes next.
Nina Nesbitt followed with a lovely set that provided a beautiful contrast to some of the other artists. Her performance showcased her as a talented singer-songwriter with a unique voice. Her heartfelt lyrics and soothing melodies were a delight to watch, and her songs added a perfect touch to the day's lineup.
As a longtime fan of Brandi Carlile, seeing her on the Great Oak Stage was another dream come true. I have to admit, I shed a tear. Her performance was nothing short of astounding, making her the perfect opener for Stevie. Hearing 'The Joke' and 'The Story' live was everything I hoped for and more. Her raspy, powerful vocals and brilliant audience interaction were captivating. Closing her set with 'We Are the Champions' in honour of the upcoming Euros final was a wonderful choice that had the audience fully on her side. From what I could hear around me, Brandi gained a lot of new fans through her performance!
And then, the moment we had all been waiting for: Stevie Nicks. From the moment she stepped on stage, the crowd was enraptured. Surrounded by fans united by their love for Stevie, there was an overwhelming sense of community and shared joy. Many, myself included, had made the effort to emulate Stevie's iconic style, with flowing shawls and layered jewellry. The lady next to me even had a ribbon-laden tambourine, a tribute to Stevie's signature accessory. As Stevie took the stage, the crowd was filled with sniffles and tears, a testament to the profound impact she has had on all of us. This was more than just a concert; it was a momentous event that celebrated the enduring magic of Stevie Nicks. The joy of music and the connection we all felt to her and to each other made it a night to remember, filled with heartfelt emotion and a sense of belonging.
Her setlist was a perfect mix of classics and deeper cuts, taking us on a journey through her incredible career. Starting with 'Outside the Rain', she immediately set the tone for an unforgettable night. 'Dreams' and 'If Anyone Falls' followed, showcasing her timeless voice that remains as strong and evocative as ever.
'Gypsy' and 'The Edge of Seventeen' were delivered with the kind of passion that only Stevie can bring. As she performed 'Bella Donna' and 'Gold Dust Woman,' the graphics on the screen behind her added a hypnotic visual element to the show, perfectly complementing the music and enhancing the overall experience.
Stevie's anecdotes between songs were like little gifts to the audience. Her Joan Didion-esque meandering Hollywood stories were fascinating; I could have listened to her regale us for hours. The way she spoke about her various shawls was delightful, adding a charming personal touch to the performance. It was evident she was thoroughly enjoying playing Hyde Park, and her joy was contagious.
A special highlight was when her vocal coach, Steve Real joined her for a song. It added an intimate and unique touch to the performance, showcasing Stevie's generosity and appreciation for her team. As she moved into 'Rhiannon,' the crowd sang along, united in their love for the music and the moment.
The night reached an unforgettable climax when Harry Styles joined Stevie on stage for the final two songs. As a huge Harry fan, I'd heard rumours he might be there, but nothing could prepare me for the sheer emotion of the moment when he appeared to sing 'Stop Draggin' My Heart Around.' Seeing him perform with Stevie on what would have been Christine McVie's 81st birthday was surreal; their rendition of 'Landslide,' accompanied by a beautiful slideshow of photos, was moving beyond words.
This concert was everything you could ask for and more. Stevie's voice is still incredibly strong, and her stage presence is unmatched. The graphics and visuals throughout the show were stunning, adding an extra layer of magic to the performance. I'm honoured to have witnessed such an icon perform in such an iconic setting. The memories of this night, especially that magical moment with Harry Styles, will stay with me forever. If you ever get the chance to see Stevie Nicks live, don't hesitate. It's an experience you'll treasure for a lifetime.

Mean Girls the Musical: A Fetch-Tacular West End Debut You Can't Miss | REVIEW
Mean Girls
Savoy Theatre
Mean Girls in the West End? That's fetch!
After much anticipation, Mean Girls the Musical has sashayed its way onto the West End stage, and it’s nothing short of a fetch-tacular extravaganza! Adapted from the iconic 2004 film penned by Tina Fey, this musical first dazzled Broadway audiences in 2018 and has now graced London with its fabulous presence, bringing all the drama, comedy, and high school hierarchies across the pond.
I first saw and reviewed Mean Girls at the August Wilson Theatre on Broadway in 2018, and I was blown away by the sharp wit, vibrant performances, and infectious energy. Seeing it again on the West End feels like a fabulous homecoming for this beloved show, and I can confidently say that it has lost none of its sparkle and charm in the transition.
For the uninitiated, Mean Girls follows the journey of Cady Heron (played with charm and sincerity by the supremely talented Charlie Burn), a previously homeschooled teenager who moves to the American suburbs from Africa. Navigating the treacherous waters of North Shore High School, she encounters the Plastics, led by the fabulously tyrannical Regina George (Georgina Castle), with her loyal sidekicks Gretchen Wieners (Elèna Gyasi) and Karen Smith (Grace Mouat). With the guidance of her quirky friends Janis Sarkisian (at this performance played by Baylie Carson) and Damian Hubbard (Tom Xander), Cady embarks on a mission to take down Regina, only to find herself transforming into the very thing she swore to destroy.
This vibrant production boasts an amazing cast, blending West End veterans with exciting new talents who are firmly cementing themselves as stars. Aaron Samuels (Daniel Bravo) steals hearts, while Ms Norbury, Ms Heron & Mrs George (Zöe Rainey) bring a delightful double dose of adult hilarity and warmth.
The performances are unanimously nothing short of wonderful. Each actor brings their unique flair, contributing to the high-energy, electrifying atmosphere that permeates the entire show and theatre. The ensemble, in particular, is incredible, delivering dance numbers with precision and enthusiasm that leaps from the stage and feels so exciting to watch. The performances are so captivating that I find myself wanting to return to the show again and again, just to focus on a different performer each time and appreciate their individual contributions to this vibrant production. Charlie Burn is infectiously charming as Cady and provides faultless, pin precise vocals to match. The commanding presence of Georgina Castle as she floats above it all as Regina George is all you could ask for from someone playing this iconic role, plus, Georgina absolutely provides a top theatre moment of the year with her rendition of World Burn. Elèna Gyasi is heartbreakingly desperate to fit in and does so in such a fun but still heartbreaking way, whilst Grace Mouat's Karen is just happy to be there. Grace's performance is laugh out loud funny and I loved her act two song 'I'm Blowing Up' which has been reworked and added back into the show to great effect. Baylie Carson and Tom Xander are the perfect double act as Janis and Damian, again bringing huge doses of humour as well as some of the strongest vocals in the musical. I also loved Lucca Chadwick-Patel as mathlete Kevin Ganatra and Daniel Bravo who brought a real sincerity to Aaron Samuels. I could go on all day about the cast because they're really all fantastic and as I say, every new visit is sure to offer a new layer of enjoyment and discovery, maybe Cady is right and the limit does not exist for how many times you could watch this show!
One of the standout features of this production is designer Scott Pask's ingenious use of screens and projections, which not only bring the hallways of North Shore High to life but also add an immersive, almost cinematic quality to the musical. This dynamic visual approach enhances the storytelling, making scenes pop with vibrancy and energy and allowing for a number of locations without the hassle of in depth scene changes, something which really allows the show to flow and maintain pace.
The West End production has seen some exciting changes from its Broadway counterpart. The creative team, led by director and choreographer Casey Nicholaw, has refined certain scenes and musical numbers to better suit the London audience. There are subtle changes in the dialogue and some new staging that add fresh layers to the beloved story, keeping it as sharp and hilarious as ever. Additionally, the musical's score has been tweaked slightly to enhance its already catchy and memorable tunes.
Let’s be real—Mean Girls the Musical may not be everyone’s cup of tea. If you’re not a fan of cheesy, over-the-top musicals, this might not be your thing. But for those who revel in fun, camp, and excellently performed music wrapped in a big pink bow, this show is pure joy. The musical numbers are infectious, with standout hits like 'Apex Predator', 'Revenge Party', and the empowering 'I’d Rather Be Me', each performed with gusto and flair by the cast.
The show captures the spirit of the original film while adding layers of depth through its songs and performances. It’s a fun, carefree romp that’s perfect for a night out with friends, a date night, or even a solo adventure to bask in its joyous glow. From the moment the curtain rises to the final bow, the audience is taken on a rollercoaster of laughter, nostalgia, and heartfelt moments.
Mean Girls in the West End is a pink-tinted, fabulously fun, spectacle that shouldn’t be missed- grab your tickets now and join the party at North Shore High!

Concert Review: Shania Twain Wows Hyde Park with Iconic Hits and Audience Sing-Alongs
Shania Twain
BST Hyde Park
Closing out the second weekend of BST, Shania Twain looked unreal as she brought excellent, boot-stomping vibes and created an evening that was an absolute blast! Despite battling a cold, Shania still managed to put on a show that had everyone living their best lives. In perhaps an attempt to save her voice, Shania often encouraged the audience to take control so we really put our school assembly singing skills to good use whenever she passed the mic to the audience. It was like a giant, joyous karaoke session under the evening sky.
The fun graphics and visuals were another highlight, becoming even more effective as the sun set. It was the perfect backdrop for Shania's performance, creating a magical atmosphere that added to the excitement. Between songs, she chatted with the audience, sharing stories and warming herself to everyone. It felt like we were all just hanging out with an old friend. I really enjoyed her clever segues into each song, and she took moments to look out at the crowd and soak it all in which was lovely to witness.
Shania’s setlist was packed with hits. She kicked off with 'Don't Be Stupid (You Know I Love You)' which was perhaps not the best opener as a lot of the audience didn't seem familiar with it but things soon stepped up and over 17 songs, there was definitely something for everyone. Her performance of 'That Don’t Impress Me Much' was a nostalgic trip that had everyone singing at the top of their lungs and of course the iconic 'Man! I Feel Like a Woman!' was a true stand out moment. Despite her cold, Shania’s energy was infectious, and she gave a performance that seemed to enchant the audience, whether it was their first time seeing her, of whether they'd caught her before during her illustrious career. 'You're Still the One' had the entire park swaying, and 'Waking Up Dreaming' was a touching highlight that showcased her still-strong vocals. Donning her cowboy hat, Hyde Park embodied the spirit of country with renditions of 'Giddy Up' and 'Who's Bed Have Your Boots Been Under', with boot-scooting and toe tapping galore. Shania told us how she really feels that were in a country music renaissance and after this performance and Morgan Wallen earlier in the week, I certainly agree!
One of the most endearing parts of the night was how Shania interacted with us. She spoke candidly between songs, sharing personal anecdotes and making the massive 50,000 person strong crowd feel like an intimate gathering. Her warmth and charisma shone through, making her performance feel genuine and heartfelt.
Before Shania took the stage, I had the pleasure of catching Nell Mescal on the Rainbow Stage. Nell was simply wonderful, delivering a selection of her own music, including some beautiful pieces from her recent EP. Her stage presence was warm and charming, and her vocals were pin sharp! They mixed delicate emotion with a powerful belt that left me eagerly anticipating her rise to stardom. She’s definitely one to watch.
Later in the day, Anne Marie and The Corrs opened on the main Great Oak Stage, and they did not disappoint. Anne Marie, with her string of bangers, got everyone hyped up with her infectious pop vibes. The Corrs brought a different style, full of emotional depth and musical brilliance. Their set was particularly moving; you could see how astounded they were by the audience’s reaction. It was a lovely, memorable moment that added a special touch to the day.
All in all, Hyde Park was alive with incredible music and unforgettable performances. Shania truly shone and made sure we all had the time of our lives. Her show was a testament to her enduring talent and connection with her fans. I was impressed much!

Morgan Wallen Lights Up BST Hyde Park: A Night of Country Magic | REVIEW
Morgan Wallen
BST Hyde Park
If there’s one thing that Morgan Wallen's concert at BST Hyde Park proved, it's that live music has a magical way of bringing people together. Having only dabbled in a few of Wallen's songs before attending, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. But by the end of the night, I was a converted fan, swept up in the collective joy and energy that only live music can create.
BST Hyde Park has a strict 10:30 pm curfew, which means performers have to make a tough choice: play as many songs as possible or spend time interacting with the crowd. Wallen masterfully did both. He packed his setlist with as many songs as he could, yet managed to sprinkle in some genuinely touching moments of interaction. Each brief pause felt intentional and heartfelt, winning over the audience every time.
One of the standout moments was when Wallen moved to a B-stage at the back of the golden circle. He explained he wanted to make eye contact with as many fans as possible, bringing an intimate feel to such a large-scale event. It was these little touches that made the evening feel special and sincere.
The music was a perfect mix of high-energy anthems and soulful ballads. Songs like 'Whiskey Glasses,' 'Last Night,' and '7 Summers' had the crowd singing along with infectious enthusiasm. Each track showcased Wallen's versatility, and it was clear that he poured his heart into every performance. It was a true celebration of country music, and the crowd couldn't get enough.
Visually, the show was a feast for the eyes. The lighting was spectacular, with lasers and wave-like smoke effects adding to the overall atmosphere. The graphics, while a bit random at times, used vibrant colour palettes that kept things interesting. The American-themed videos, featuring Wallen with a fish, a gun, and a golf club, added a fun and fitting touch, especially for a 4th of July performance, even if they were somewhat rogue choices.
Despite my initial unfamiliarity with his music, the sheer amount of joy I felt throughout the evening is a testament to Wallen's talent and the unifying power of live, communal music. The concert was not just a performance but a shared experience that brought people together, celebrating the joy of country music and live events.
Morgan Wallen's debut at BST Hyde Park was certainly a night to remember. His ability to blend energetic hits with heartfelt moments, combined with his genuine connection to the audience, made for an unforgettable experience. The quirky graphics and dazzling lighting only added to the charm. If you ever get the chance to see Morgan Wallen live, don’t hesitate – it’s an experience that will leave you with a smile on your face and a song in your heart.

Reneé Rapp 'Snow Hard Feelings' Tour in London and Intimate Acoustic Show REVIEW
Reneé Rapp's Snow Hard Feelings Tour
Eventim Apollo, Camden Roundhouse and Banquet Records
Having followed Reneé Rapp since 2018 and attending her debut London show last year, I snapped up tickets for her London residency in an instant and waited with extreme levels of excitement to see her perform again. It's funny having watched someone for so long, you feel a strange sense of pride without even knowing them personally. Perhaps with Reneé it's even stronger because of her connection to us fans that makes her feel almost like a friend, even on the other side of the Atlantic. So, going into the weekend I knew it was going to be special, but it turned out to be so much more than that.
From her breakout role as Regina George in Mean Girls on Broadway and then the recent film adaptation, to her portrayal of Leighton in the charmingly relevant The Sex Lives of College Girls series, to her acclaimed debut album, Rapp has grown from strength to strength, gaining an adoring fanbase along the way, and always staying true to her values of honesty and integrity. Last year her first full length album was released to much critical acclaim (snubbed by the Grammy's, but we move) and this tour was a testament to her evolution as an artist, and a celebration of her impressive musical intuition and writing skills. I won't go into depth because we'd be here forever but for me it's a no skip album that perfectly blends elements of pop, rock, and theatre to create a spellbinding journey. Lyrically it hits hard and musically it offers variety and so much melodic interest whilst still retaining a very Reneé feel.
Watching last year's concert, with music from Rapp's EP 'Everything to Everyone' it was hard to imagine it could get better but with time, it seems Renee has grown in confidence and truly proves to be born for the stage. Two of the shows I saw (Hammersmith Apollo and Camden Roundhouse) were part of the Snow Hard Feelings Tour, which included a mixture of songs from both releases. During these full production concerts, Rapp commanded attention with her dynamic vocals and infectious energy, delivering unforgettable performances, supported by her brilliant band and excellent lighting and video design.
But it was Rapp's acoustic performance at Banquet Records that truly showcased her vocal prowess and artistry. Stripped of elaborate production, Rapp delivered soul-stirring renditions of her songs, allowing her powerhouse vocals to take centre stage. With each note, she demonstrated remarkable control and nuance, effortlessly navigating through intricate melodies and emotive lyrics. Her performance was a masterclass in vocal performance, with faultless transitions between delicate falsetto and powerful belting.
I've always been in awe of Reneé's vocal technique, from her rounded vowels, to her impeccable breath control, phrasing and healthy belt, so getting a chance to witness it close up felt really special. Vocally she shone in all three shows, but there's really something magical about an acoustic show, with only a few hundred people all living in the moment and experiencing someone's innate talent. This show's version of 'Snow Angel' will go down as one of my favourite live vocals I've ever heard.
Throughout the shows, Rapp's authenticity and vulnerability were palpable. Whether sharing personal stories or engaging in playful banter with the crowd, she created an intimate connection that made everyone feel like old friends. Despite the occasional interruptions caused by fainting fans, Rapp handled each moment with grace and humour, turning potential disruptions into endearing anecdotes. Plus, her ability to convey emotion through her vocals and infuse each lyric with depth and sincerity, creates an intimate connection with her audience. Part comedy show, part concert, you're sure to be laughing out loud and probably crying during a Reneé Rapp concert.
Music is such a community former, and these shows were testament to that. From standing in the queues to waiting in the venue for the concert to start, I got chatting to so many people and felt like I was in a room of likeminded people who just wanted to have a good time. The ethos of acceptance and friendship which Reneé fosters, trickles down to her fans, allowing the creation of a brilliantly welcoming environment. There are also a number of excellent audience chants which when screamed out, really unite the crowd, and I must say, as a Brit I feel like we really excel at these, thanks to our years of assemblies and pantomimes. The signs held up by fans added to the sense of community, but unfortunately there were many which veered into objectification. Sign culture and boundaries is a whole topic of it's own but Reneé navigated these situations with poise, reminding fans of the importance of respect; let's just hope people chill out for her next performances.
The support acts, Towa Bird and Sekou, brought their own energy to the stage, setting the perfect tone for Rapp's captivating performances. Towa Bird, with their soulful melodies and infectious energy, warmed up the crowd with their genre-bending sound, seamlessly blending elements of indie-pop and R&B. Their dynamic performance left a lasting impression, showcasing their undeniable charisma and artistry. Meanwhile, Sekou captivated audiences with his powerful vocals and heartfelt lyrics, delivering an electrifying performance. At only 19 years old, he's sure to go from strength to strength and I can't wait to see him flourish in the music industry.
As the final notes of 'Snow Angel' echoed through the venues and confetti rained down, it was clear that Rapp's London shows had left an indelible mark on all who were lucky enough to witness them. With her unparalleled talent, genuine connection to her fans, and unwavering authenticity, Reneé Rapp has proven once again why she is a force to be reckoned with. And as London basks in the afterglow of her triumphant performances, one thing is certain: the star of Reneé Rapp is only just beginning to rise. Bring on the Reneésance.

Hadestown at the Lyric Theatre REVIEW: A Soul-Stirring Journey to the Depths of Hell
Hadestown
Lyric Theatre
There are musicals that touch your soul and for me that’s Hadestown. I first saw the show in 2018, where I went in completely blind and came out gob smacked and awed. Tonight after the official West End opening night, I feel equally awed as well as inspired, moved, astounded, heartbroken and overjoyed. There really aren’t adjectives to describe how heartfelt and special this show is. Not only is it a piece of fantastic quality theatre but it’s also a poem, a concert, a celebration of life and humanity, an ode to music and above all, a love story.
Hadestown tells the tale of young Orpheus and Eurydice as their tales intertwine. It's a musical retelling of the ancient Greek myth of the duo and follows the journey of Orpheus as he descends into the underworld, determined to rescue his beloved Eurydice from the clutches of the charismatic but menacing Hades. Despite the various iterations and productions this musical has gone through, one constant is how scarily relevant the themes it explores feel in our modern world. Hades, ruler of the underworld and the mines, ostensibly grants "freedom" through employment while simultaneously confining his subjects behind a barrier. Why We Build The Wall is certainly one of the most pertinent songs of the production, its relevance hits all too close to home in the current world.
The musical borders the line between acting as "the world we live in, and the one we dream about", in thanks part to Rachel Hauck's set. Scaled down slightly from the National Theatre production, it still evokes Depression-era vibes and cleverly frames the story. Bradley King's lighting literally highlights some of the most astounding moments of the show, especially during Hades' peak moments, as well as casting shadows to create an almost cinematic feel; overall it's just an incredibly cohesive show that has a vibe and aesthetic that matches it so well.
This undefined world is perhaps best showcased by Anaïs Mitchell's incredible score which combines so many styles a creates such special storytelling. The intricate lyrics allow layers upon layers of emotions to form as Anaïs weaves a musical tapestry that is charming and delightful at times, but gritty and painful at others. Mitchell has truly crafted a musical masterpiece that transcends time and genre and creates a theatrical experience like no other.
At it's core this is a story about people, and the people who lead it are wonderful. As the headstrong Eurydice, Grace Hodgett Young is everything you could ask for in a leading lady, her calm is as strong as her passion and she fills every moment with charisma. There’s often mention of “stage presence” but it’s rare you see the phrase as outwardly displayed as with Grace who commands even the smallest of moments. Of course she’s also vocally dreamy, showcasing all layers of her voice and perfectly bringing the vocal grit that’s so necessary for the role. Her easy swagger and playfulness is a perfect balance to Orepheus' more nervous persona. Taking on the role of this heartstrong counterpart, Donal Finn is delightfully whimsical and charming. Donal's Orpheus truly comes into his own during act two when his passion for his partner and also his music are on full display and his voice becomes a beacon of hope cutting through the darkness of despair. It's utterly heartbreaking when we reach the expected conclusion, a testament to the emotion the cast pour out to get us to that point.
As the enigmatic Hermes, Melanie La Barrie is all parts wonderful, her presence commanding the stage with every word and gesture and bringing humour and gravitas in equal measure. Her performance weaves together the threads of myth and legend with an all knowing wisdom that seems to transcend time, she truly gives everything on stage and is a marvel to behold.
Hadestown is more than a musical—it's an experience, a testament to the enduring power of art to touch the very depths of our souls. It's a rare gem that shines brightly in the landscape of contemporary theatre, a reminder that sometimes, even in the darkest of times, there is still beauty to be found.
In the hallowed halls of the Lyric Theatre, you can bear witness to something truly extraordinary. Hadestown is a triumph in every sense of the word and it needs to be seen.

Stranger Things: The First Shadow, Phoenix Theatre London | REVIEW
Stranger Things: The First Shadow
Phoenix Theatre
As someone who ventured into the realm of Stranger Things: The First Shadow without much prior experience with the series, aside from watching a few episodes and a recap, I was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly captivated by this spectacular supernatural spectacle. The Duffer Brothers, with Jack Thorne and Kate Trefry have crafted a story that effortlessly drew me into the mysterious world of Hawkins, Indiana, even as a newcomer to the Stranger Things universe.
From the very first applause inducing scenes, I found myself immersed in the gripping narrative that skilfully combines elements of suspense, nostalgia, and the supernatural. The show's ability to seamlessly introduce me to its characters and the intricacies of their relationships made it easy to connect with the story, and I was quickly invested in the fates of these intriguing personalities.
The prequel introduces both beloved characters and fresh faces, each receiving substantial development and individuality. The performances are exceptional, characterised by universally nuanced and emotionally charged portrayals. Louis McCartney, in his striking West End debut as Henry Creel, delivers a chilling performance that combines twisted actions with an alarming charm. McCartney's masterful physicality, full of spasms and contortions, adds an extra layer of intensity to the role- I can only imagine how much physio he'll need during the run! Isabella Pappas embodies Joyce with fierce brilliance, seamlessly incorporating Winona Ryder's iconic traits while infusing the character with her own spin. Pappas creates a captivating, headstrong persona that garners unwavering support. Alongside her, Oscar Lloyd portrays James Hopper Jr. with suave charisma, delivering witty one-liners and exuding an aura that captivates throughout.
The brilliance of this show lies in the meticulous attention and craftsmanship dedicated to shaping the intricate backstories of every character. Each member is endowed with distinct intentions and personality traits, allowing for intrigue at every turn. There isn't a single weak link to be discovered, but special recognition is deserved for the performances of Christopher Buckley as the endearing Bob Newby and Michael Jibson, who delivers haunting moments as the tormented Victor Creel. Max Harwood as Alan Munson, injects copious amounts of humour, energy, and vitality into the narrative, fashioning a persona that practically begs for its own enthralling spin-off storyline; whilst Patrick Vaill brings eerie menace to the stage as Dr Brenner.
In the hands of Stephen Daldry and Justin Martin, the play unfolds like a blooming flower, or more aptly, the opening mouth of a demogorgon. It moves seamlessly between the whirlwind of action and the rich tapestry of each thoughtfully crafted scene. High-school hallways and bathrooms, the mundane backdrop of everyday life, transform into breathtaking alternate worlds in the blink of an eye, all thanks to the nimble touch of Miriam Buether's set design. Jon Clark's lighting is like a choreographed dance, shifting between mysterious shadows and warm sunlight, mirroring the transformative journey of the characters.
The story takes a deep dive into the shadows, embracing a genuinely dark undertone with jumps and eerie sounds reminiscent of horror films, all expertly blended into the production by Paul Arditti's exceptional sound design. Yet, within the darkness, there's a contrasting brightness—a nostalgic, retro Americana that permeates the air. Sprinkled with snippets of song, it adds layers of emotion and complexity to this multidimensional theatrical experience, making it a journey that feels both supernatural and believable.
Stranger Things: The First Shadow is a testament to the storytelling prowess of its creators. As someone unfamiliar with the series, I can confidently say that this instalment stands alone as a brilliant and engaging piece of theatre.

Dear England at the Prince Edward Theatre review: An Ode to the Nation
Dear England
Prince Edward Theatre
It could be argued that James Graham is the master of creating works which capture the intricate fabric of contemporary Britain, and his most recent opening, Dear England does just that, emerging as a heartfelt, thought-provoking piece. This engaging production eloquently delves into British identity, the echoes of history, dreams for the future, and the nation's relationship to football.
Dear England artfully blends past and present, transporting audiences through time in a seamless and captivating manner. This storytelling technique offers a unique lens through which we can view the profound influence of history on our present. The play focusses on Gareth Southgate's journey as manager of the England football team, linking in his own personal history, as well as the histories of his team and England as a whole. It's a very cleverly done show which feels completely relevant, modern and necessary.
The characters, portrayed by a talented ensemble cast, come alive with vibrant, authentic performances. These characters represent a rich tapestry of contemporary Britain, showcasing immigrants, soldiers, activists, and politicians. Joseph Fiennes outstandingly leads the show as Gareth and helps to cultivate the entire cast's emotional depth, forging a genuine connection between the characters and the audience.
Es Devlin's set design is typically National Theatre and incredibly well done, seamlessly transporting us from one time to another. The use of multimedia elements, including videos, adds depth and texture to the storytelling. With each shift in the backdrop, the mood and ambiance evolve, underscoring the diversity and complexity of the themes explored.
Graham's writing is sharp and insightful, with sprinkles of humour throughout to balance the gravity of the themes. Dear England explores national identity, migration, patriotism, and the ever-relevant question of what it truly means to be British. The dialogue is simultaneously poetic and genuine, prompting the audience to reflect on their own connection to the nation.
It's fair to mention that the play occasionally teeters on the edge of trying a bit too hard, with the odd scene not being as impactful as you'd hope. Nevertheless, this is a small price to pay for a production that aims to encapsulate the very essence of a nation and overall Dear England is a touching and timely exploration of the British identity. It masterfully navigates the waters of history, politics, and human experience, leaving audiences with a deeper understanding of what defines their nation.
This production is a testament to the incredible power of theatre to mirror, challenge, and celebrate our shared story. With its compelling storytelling, exceptional cast, and innovative design, Dear England is a need-to-see performance, that hopefully will engage and resonate with both regular and not so regular theatregoers.

Hamnet at the Garrick Theatre review: Emotional, engaging and enchanting
Hamnet
Garrick Theatre
★★★★
Presented by the Royal Shakespeare Company, and based on Maggie O'Farrell's book of the same name, Hamnet is a truly remarkable production that's captivating, moving and ever so slightly whimsical.
The show's unique take on Shakespeare's life and the emotional journey it explores is nothing short of brilliant. The creative team, with adaptation by Lolita Chakrabarti and direction by Erica Whyman, manage to delve into the personal life of one of history's greatest playwrights, offering a fresh and emotionally charged perspective. The seamless blending of historical accuracy and artistic interpretation is commendable, making Hamnet a compelling experience for theatre enthusiasts and Shakespeare aficionados alike.
The performances are simply outstanding. The cast's commitment to their roles and the intensity of their portrayals completely transport you from pouring Charing Cross road to the world of Hamnet and his family. The emotional depth brought to the characters is both touching and thought-provoking. Madeleine Mantock gives an astoundingly moving performance as Agnes, showing amazing development and growth that has the audience really rooting for her and therefore feeling her pain to the nth degree in the second act. Tom Varey is witty but complex as William whilst Alex Jarrett really comes into her own and provides some of the most understated but emotionally impactful moments of the show. Universally the chemistry and energy among the actors is palpable, with the whole team creating an atmosphere of authenticity that draws the audience in, you couldn't ask for a stronger team of performers.
The set design (Tom Piper) and production values are top-notch. The stage design, lighting (Prema Mehta), and soundscapes (Oguz Kaplangi) add a layer of immersion that transports us to the Elizabethan era. The careful attention to detail in recreating this period is truly impressive, and contributes significantly to the overall atmosphere of the play.
The show is mostly paced well but there are a few moments which pull slightly. While the slower tempo is fitting for the introspective nature of the play, there are moments where a bit more dynamism would've helped. Nevertheless, this is a minor quibble in an otherwise exceptional production.
Hamnet is a theatrical triumph, offering a profound and emotional exploration of the Shakespearean legacy. With powerful performances, and a thought-provoking narrative, it is a must-see!

The Barricade Boys West End Party at the Adelphi Theatre Review: Everything Great About Musical Theatre
The Barricade Boys West End Party
Adelphi Theatre
★★★★★
After extensive touring, The Barricade Boys were back in the West End last night for a heaping dose of feel-good fun. The brainchild of Scott Garnham and Simon Schofield, the Les Misérables-alumni-super-group (completed by Craig Mather and Kieran Brown) performed a maelstrom of musical theatre numbers, alongside pop, rock and swing numbers. With effortless rapport and smooth moves, it's clear to see why the group have gained such a strong fanbase who turned out in full force to the Adelphi Theatre.
What truly sets The Barricade Boys apart is more than just their extraordinary vocal talents and impeccable harmonies. It's the genuine friendship and affection they share, and the fact that they truly seem to be having a ball on stage. Amidst their impressive musical performances and polished dance routines, they weave in personal stories and charming anecdotes from their experiences in various shows; effortlessly connecting with the audience and creating an atmosphere that feels wonderfully welcoming.
Their repertoire spans a wide range of emotions, from the heartfelt intensity of Les Misérables to the joyful doo-wop harmonies of Jersey Boys. Through this musical journey, they showcase melodies from some of the world's greatest musicians, including The Beatles, Bon Jovi, and Queen, all interpreted in a specifically Barricade Boys way. It's a show that will lift your spirits and induce pure joy and serotonin.
There's a certain charm that makes the whole thing feel superbly carefree and entertaining, and whilst there is an element of cheesiness that comes with this sort of show, the group do a spectacular job of keeping everything high quality and entertaining for all, whether they're the target audience or not.
It must be said that at some points the sound balance was a little off, with the backing slightly overpowering the singers but as a whole it was a spectacular sounding evening and the team must be applauded for balancing a show with so many moving vocals, especially for a one night only performance at this venue. It must also be said how outstanding the Barricade Band are, perfectly matching the energy of the boys as well as having a ball themselves.
All of this plus the special guests Courtney Bowman, Fra Fee and Matt Henry, really made it an evening of musical theatre magic.
In a time when so much hatred and pain is prevalent in the world, it's such a privilege and honour to be able to escape to the comfort of the theatre, and this show is a glorious illustration and celebration of the joy and unity the art form can provide.

Sondheim's Old Friends at the Gielgud Theatre Review: A Magical Piece of Theatre History
Sondheim's Old Friends
Gielgud Theatre
★★★★★
Musical theatre is what it is today, in no small part thanks to the brilliance of Stephen Sondheim, and this musical revue gloriously celebrates that whilst also providing an amazing memorial of Stephen and his melodic legacy. Devised by Cameron Mackintosh, the show like opening a musical time capsule which whisks you back to a bygone era, and a theatrical peak; showcasing a selection of the well known and lesser known Sondheim pieces.
Every aspect of the show is like a trip down memory lane, capturing the essence of a glamorous past. Jill Parker's costumes are simplistic enough for the setting whilst really elevating the story telling necessary to truly do Sondheim's work justice. Particularly impressive are the wolf ensemble and Mrs Lovett's get up which both have a refreshing modern feel. Set wise, Matt Kinley's design cleverly uses the Les Miserables moving pieces to create visual interest and bring some real wow moments to the stage. The entire Sweeney Todd section is impeccable. Thanks to Matthew Bourne's staging and direction, you find yourself lost in the magic, engulfed in the nostalgic beauty of a time that lives on through this production.
The show features the creme de la creme of the musical theatre world, with Broadway royalty Lea Salonga and Bernadette Peters taking the helm, and proving why they are so beloved- it feels like an out of body experience seeing such wonders. The whole cast give standout performances and there are truly too many to name but mention must go to Bradley Jaden's Wolf, Joanna Riding's 'Not Getting Married Today' and Jeremy Secomb's Sweeney Todd. Christine Allado and Bonnie Langford, are also wonderful and the cast really doesn't have a weak link. Universally their voices, movements and energy are enchanting- conjuring a musical spell that leaves you mesmerised. Each song feels like a little piece of history, beautifully presented and cherished. Stephen Mear's choreography adds to this magical experience, bringing a further touch of grace and finesse to proceedings.
Conducted by Alfonso Casado Trigo the orchestra are humungous aspect of the success of this show. Faultlessly performing every note, their music lingers long after the final bow.
Sondheim's Old Friends at the Gielgud Theatre is a magical trip through musical history. It's a celebration of Sondheim's genius and the enchantment of the stage. If you're seeking a dose of wonder and a reminder of the magic that live performances bring, don't miss this truly magical experience.

Police Cops: The Musical at the Southwark Playhouse Review: A Hilarious Riot of a Show
Southwark Playhouse (Borough)
★★★★
Who'd have thought a comedy musical about the US police force could be so entertaining? Well, Police Cops: The Musical proves it's possible. Fresh from wowing crowds at the Edinburgh Fringe, this lively spoof of 80s American action films has now hit London.
Created by Zachary Hunt, Nathan Parkinson, and Tom Roe, this musical takes you on a wild ride through all the clichés of action movies. It follows Jimmy Johnson, a regular teenager turned aspiring 'best damn police cop ever' after a tragic loss. He sets off on a mission to take down the big bad criminals, teaming up with a retired rogue cop, jetting off to Mexico and reconnecting with his high school crush. And all of this is delivered with a relentless dose of stupendously silly comedy.
In this latest iteration of Police Cops, the original team have penned some brilliantly witty lyrics, set to a catchy score by Ben Adams of Eugenius, drawing on musical theatre tropes and classic 80s hits. Andrew Exeter's set and lighting work is magical once again, contributing to a high-energy, high-budget production.
Police Cops: The Musical is outrageously ridiculous yet impressively slick, excellently performed, and keeps you engaged throughout. The humour is silly and over the top, and the cast and crew showcase their real skill in blending comic satire with musical theatre and improv, hitting every comedic and musical beat perfectly. Through the recurring gags, hilarious stage craft and show-stopping numbers it's clear this team understands their genres and have created something uniquely entertaining by merging them. Plus, the writing is really self-aware, touching on outrageous ideas but never crossing the line.
Melinda Orengo, Natassia Bustamente and at this performance Mychele Lebrun as well, all deliver standout performances. All three seamlessly blend polished musical theatre with offbeat character comedy. Zachary Hunt, Nathan Parkinson, and Tom Roe, the masterminds behind this show, also star in it, showcasing their versatility. Hunt, as the leading man, pours endless energy and enthusiasm into his role, while Roe's sharp comic timing and Parkinson's unhinged characters add to the laughter.
One of the most delightful aspects of Police Cops is how evident it is that the entire team is having a blast. You can often catch cast members trying to stifle their laughter, and the musical director, Gabriel Chernick, exudes such joy, especially during a hilarious improv section involving sweets!
In Ameri-conclusion, Police Cops: The Musical is an unexpected treasure, blending zany satire with polished, professional musical theatre. It's hard not to have a grin plastered on your face throughout the performance—it's an absolute blast!

The Little Big Things at Soho Place Review: Shines as a Celebration of Disability
The Little Big Things
Soho Place
★★★★
The Little Big Things at Soho Place presents an emotional journey that triumphs in depicting the resilience of the human spirit. Based on the story of Henry Fraser as told in his 2017 memoir of the same name, the musical tracks his journey from a budding rugby player, to being paralysed from the neck down after a freak diving accident on holiday in Portugal. This production is a testament to the power of adaptation and determination, and instead of being a somewhat patronising portrayal of becoming an inspiration after a life trauma, it showcases the transition from the person Henry was pre-accident to who he became post-accident. It also looks at how Henry's family deal with the changes and features the work of the NHS as well as a small romantic subplot. Each aspect makes this a truly uplifting and charmingly British musical, which feels like it's actively trying to shy away from the typical style of storytelling that often surrounds the stories of disabled people.
Nick Butcher (music) and Tom Ling (music and lyrics) clearly have a talent for writing high energy songs and ballads that tug at your heartstrings. The music is primarily upbeat and big however, while deeply engaging during the performance, the songs don't engrave themselves into memory once the curtains fall. The performances are undoubtedly and unanimously captivating, enriching the scenes and evoking a range of emotions. However, a few standout, memorable tunes would have elevated the overall experience and resonated long after leaving the theatre.
The integration of projections and lighting (Howard Hudson) in The Little Big Things is nothing short of remarkable. The creative use of light and visuals immerses the audience into the heart of the story, enhancing the emotional impact of the narrative. The play of light and shadows amplifies the depth of the characters' struggles and triumphs, leaving a lasting visual impression.
Director Luke Sheppard fearlessly pushes the limits of accessible theatre, infusing innovation, vitality, and charisma into an already poignant narrative. The staging is in constant motion, driven by Mark Smith's lively choreography, which ingeniously integrates moments of BSL (British Sign Language) and embodies the joy and celebration which is infused throughout the show.
Despite the undeniable power of the narrative, there are moments when the production grapples with sudden transitions and dialogues that could benefit from a smoother flow. The pacing occasionally feels a bit clunky, disrupting the overall rhythm. However, this doesn't detract significantly from the musical's poignant message of resilience and adaptation.
The cast's performances are stellar, embodying the characters with authenticity and dedication. Their portrayals breathe life into the story, allowing the audience to connect deeply with the struggles and triumphs of the characters. The musical shines as a celebration of disability, showcasing the strength and adaptability required to navigate a new life.
The Little Big Things is a moving musical that speaks to the resilience of the human spirit. The impeccable use of projections and lighting, along with a talented cast, creates a poignant theatrical experience. Despite minor pacing and memorability concerns, the musical stands as a heartfelt celebration of perseverance and a glowing portrayal of adapting to life's challenges. The little faults don't take away from the big things that make this show as glowing and special as it is and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a meaningful and uplifting night at the theatre, just make sure you take some tissues with you!

Love Never Dies in Concert at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane Review: Musicality Reigns Supreme
Love Never Dies in Concert
Theatre Royal Drury Lane
★★★★
Once again, the LMTO and Fourth Wall Live have joined forces to bring a musical to life in concert form with a stellar cast and stunning music. This time, it’s the much discussed and dissected Love Never Dies, which hasn’t been staged in the West End since 2011. For two days the Theatre Royal Drury Lane played host to the latest iteration of the show which mesmerisingly took audiences back to the world of the Phantom and Christine. With the spotlight on a talented cast, and powerful orchestrations, this concert rendition really let the music shine and provided a memorable theatrical experience for those in attendance.
With such a brilliant cast, it’s no surprise that the performances were broadly nothing short of exceptional, capturing the essence of the characters and their emotions. Celinde Schoenmaker stepped back into the role of the beloved songbird, Christine Daae and did so in an utterly magical way, with her soaring soprano perfectly bringing the score to life and dazzling throughout her time on stage. Alongside her, Broadway veteran Norm Lewis put mask back on (in this case a swanky gold number) and became the musical Phantom of the Opera once again. His gorgeous baritone vocals provided some spectacular moments, especially in the rousing Till I Hear You Sing and it’s always a treat to see him on a West End stage. It did however seem that the rock number The Beauty Underneath was not performed live, which is a bit disappointing in a show of this calibre, and it would be interesting to know what prompted this decision from the creative team. This isn’t a criticism of anyone in particular, but perhaps opens a wider conversation about how these concert versions are rehearsed and put together. Of course it’s a massive task to create such strong shows in a short amount of time and given their minimal runtime it’s understandable that the turnaround has to be fairly quick, but it would be curious to know if it’s possible to create a rehearsal process that works for everyone involved and doesn’t leave the audience feeling shortchanged.
Aside from this, the music was incredibly strong, with a number of stand out moments that brought to life the deeply evocative and emotive feelings which course through this show. As Meg Giry, Courtney Stapleton brought a lovely buoyancy and freshness which showed the character in a new and engaging light, whilst Matthew Season-Young provided some strong vocal moments as Raoul. The supporting cast, including the London Musical Theatre Chorus deserve commendation for their remarkable vocals which truly soared in the Theatre Royal Drury Lane.
Staging wise, this was one of the less full-out concerts compared to others but it still did an excellent job of evoking the world of Phantasma and showcasing some of the whimsy of Coney Island. Rebecca Brower’s costumes were very in keeping with the gothic vibes and cleverly mirrored some of those from the original Phantom production, overall creating a dynamic atmosphere which cleverly set the place and time, without overshadowing the music.
The LMTO orchestra, under the baton of Freddie Tapner, masterfully captured the intricate emotions of the music, underscoring the characters' journeys with every note. The majestic melodies and haunting refrains were a testament to the timeless quality of Lloyd Webber's composition and it was such a treat to hear the score performed by such a large group of highly talented musicians.
While Love Never Dies has faced criticism for its narrative depth, the concert format seemed to address some of these concerns. The live performance allowed the characters to shine and their relationships to be explored with greater nuance. A lot of the plot is quite frankly ludicrous and the characters have taken complete 180s from their initial iterations but this concert format seemed to be a perfect vehicle for highlighting the strengths of the piece while minimising its perceived weaknesses.
Overall Love Never Dies in Concert, was a captivating and emotionally resonant experience. The talented cast and impeccable orchestral accompaniment combined to create a theatrical event that honoured the legacy of its predecessor while standing as a powerful production in its own right. Many of the original book issues still stand but from the audience reaction, it’s clear that this is still a show which many hold close to their hearts.
