Well SPRINGTIME FOR HITLER has finally met its match! I have sat through some duff shows at the Dominion Theatre but this one takes the cake. Anyone remember David Cassidy as an intergalactic warrior in TIME acting along with a 3-D hologram of Lord Olivier’s head? Well, the hologram is back. However this time it is Liam Neeson and we’ve progressed to a whole body hologram.

Review: NORMA at English National Opera
By Kit Benjamin Thursday, February 25 2016, 12:37
Norma, by Vincenzo Bellini, belongs to a school of opera known as Bel Canto which, to translate somewhat freely, could be said to mean “it’s all about the singing”. Some of the music can be a bit humdrum and the plots bizarre, but the pulses of the opera-loving public are set racing so frantically by the dazzling vocal firework displays that we are prepared to forgive almost anything. Luckily.

Review: MOTOWN at the Shaftesbury Theatre
By Hugh Wooldridge Thursday, February 25 2016, 11:26
While we here in Britain were listening to The Rolling Stones, The Beatles and Cliff Richard and The Shadows, most of America was listening to the extraordinary output and music of Berry Gordy, the founder and owner of the (Tamla) Motown label.

Review: MRS HENDERSON PRESENTS at the Adelphi Theatre
By Phil Willmott Thursday, February 18 2016, 15:49
MRS HENDERSON PRESENTS, which is being promoted as a new British musical, has been adapted from a 2005 film of the same name which starred Judy Dench in the title role.
Mrs H was an upperclass lady who took it into her head to buy the dilapidated Windmill Theatre in London's Soho. When her hopes of a non-stop variety review failed to find an audience she hit upon the idea of parading topless show girls on her stage.

Review: HAND TO GOD at the Vaudeville Theatre
By Phil Willmott Thursday, February 18 2016, 15:06
Sometimes as a theatre critic you find yourself expressing a minority view. In such cases I think it's important to stick to your guns so although most established critics have damned HAND TO GOD as tedious and puerile, I loved it in New York and I loved it here, laughing throughout.
