“Nothing rhymes with ‘Clyde & Bonnie’.” Everyone’s favourite criminal gang returns, as Bonnie & Clyde moves home to the Garrick Theatre for a limited engagement, following on from its run at the Arts Theatre last year. Many of that original cast have returned for some more hell-raising – including stars Frances Mayli McCann & Jordan […]
Read More Bonnie & ClydeLondon’s “Most Wanted” musical is back for a new run – this time, Bonnie & Clyde are holding up the Garrick Theatre for a limited 11-week season. I was recently fortunate enough to be invited along to the rehearsal room to see how things were coming along (unsurprisingly it all sounded fantastic), as well as have […]
Read More Why should you see Bonnie & Clyde?You didn’t think I’d share my least favourite shows of the year and just leave it at that, did you? Obviously not. As well as continuing to follow Wuthering Heights across the country, and making regular appointments with Operation Mincemeat in its two 2022 homes, I managed to see 78 different shows (repeat visits – […]
Read More Favourite shows 2022As most people have noted, you can’t move for stage adaptations of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol this year, so it’s vital that each one has something that makes it stand out from the crowd – and makes people want to see multiple versions. If you head to the Queen Elizabeth Hall at the Southbank Centre […]
Read More Dolly Parton’s Smoky Mountain Christmas CarolWell, it’s been quite a year, hasn’t it? The less said about the political landscape the better, except for the fact that it’s probably given James Graham enough material to last a lifetime… I can’t help but wish that I had some play writing ability to lighten the load (and for my own catharsis)! Back […]
Read More End of 2019 reportGone are the days of one show or one venue to rule them all! Obviously I will still happily make repeat visits to shows – or follow them around on tour – if I really enjoy them, but variety has very much been the spice of life in 2018. That covers venue as much as […]
Read More End of 2018 reportI had such a good time travelling around for shows last year that I decided I should keep it up again this year. There may not be any international travel in there, but Mind the Blog has definitely covered a good proportion of Britain at least! With an incredible amount of irritation to be found […]
Read More Mind the Blog ‘on tour’ 2018This year I decided that I should celebrate all my favourite people, places & things from theatre in 2018 – as there has been a considerable amount going on! #MindtheAdvent Day 1: Looking back to my recent adventures on #MTBChallenge18! Including @TheWiderEarth, @oldvictheatre, #MistyThePlay & @The_Globe… https://t.co/qwBIfBuEiY pic.twitter.com/bSDPpNEaH5 — Mind the Blog (@Mind_the_Blog) December 1, […]
Read More Mind the Advent 2018First off, you’ll notice that (unlike February) I’ve had a little bit of time to raise the logo stakes slightly – so it’s slowly getting there… Lots of different things opening across the country this month. In London there are a lot of fringe & Off West End productions coming for you, such as Glass […]
Read More Never Mind The Blog… Here’s March 2018Missed what January had to offer? Have a quick skim over the first post if you like, and then see what’s happening in the shortest month of the year. No time to revamp the logo, so for now you’ll still have to bear with my ‘interesting’ design… There’s another slew of openings and early previews […]
