School of Rock, The Musical – Fresh from Broadway. Jack Black gathered loads of critical acclaim for his lead role in the movie, a monster of a hit in 2003.

Now it's on stage in London, adapted masterfully for the stage and setting theatreland on fire for an extremely funny rock-fest you won't forget in a hurry.

Dream Girls – The legendary musical re-awakens. Roll back time to 1981 and Dreamgirls had just opened on Broadway. Thirty years ago the part of Effie was played by Jennifer Holliday, who won an Oscar for her role as Effie in the 2006 film. Both movie and stage versions raised the roof with standing ovation after standing ovation. That's the power of soul music, that's the effect of this legendary musical, and now it's back in town.

Welcome to Foxfinder. This play is gripping. It's disturbing. And it's also darkly comic.
