Hup, Hup, Hup and away we go!

I was so jealous of the surprisingly large proportion of the audience who didn't know what was coming - one of the all-time greatest shocks in cinema.

Spectacular, moving, and filled with political passion, Sylvia really is the musical revolution that you need to join.

Acosta Danza Cuban Baroque takes stage at Norwich Theatre Royal

Farewell, for now, to our Sonic Wave nights at The Cut in Halesworth – it is a fine venue, run by lovely people.

GURRIERS hit the stage hard, playing eighteen songs in 80 minutes.

A slice of joy and hope before we’re launched into the depths of the cold dark winter.

Nic Norton and Alice Morrell return with their first new album together since 2022's Killing Time

I’ve seen a lot of amazing, life-altering, intimate gigs at Voodoos, but this was by far the best. Theatre is going far, and I think we were lucky to see them in such a small venue.

For a fun night out (and do remember to wear something pink on Wednesday) Mean Girls the musical remains a fond reminder of good times past.

A wonderful combination of history, farce and facts means that Operation Mincemeat is truly a musical comedy to savour.

Oh, my goodness they are so young!

The songs seemed to belong to the audience as much as to the person on stage, but Carter still had enough command of them to make them feel freshly handled rather than preserved behind glass.

This particular festival has been running for some eight years now and just continues to go from strength-to-strength year on year.

Norwich should be very proud of Sound Ideas Theatre Company, and everybody involved in this kooky, spooky, production.

The Car Man is probably the best dance work that Sir Matthew Bourne has created since New Adventures' version of Swan Lake. Drive yourselves down to Norwich Theatre Royal and grab yourselves a slice of the action.

Much like the Book Hive that curates the festival, the weekend offered an eclectic line up that offered a smorgasbord of literary talent.

Audience and improvisers collided and gelled creating a chaos of original and unrepeatable comedy in the way that makes improv such a fresh and endlessly entertaining form.

They stormed Norwich Arts Centre with a head-banging sellout show on the back of fifth album Death Hilarious.

“HELLO? HELLO? No, I can't talk. I'm in Epic Studios”.  

Clear your mind of the film, take along your I Spy book of Cole Porter songs, and a hugely entertaining evening awaits

Even within the cavernous interior of the Theatre Royal, this performance really did still feel intimate.

Migration, either as an economic consequence of war, or as a political escape route, is not something that is going to go away

What a night of pop nostalgia and cracking 80’s tunage.
