Must be the first time in a while Crossroads have done Aladdin as a panto, maybe testing the waters before a potential Palladium production? |

Very disappointed with the Belgrade Theatre Coventry. What with all the reports of storms, snow and ice there's no way I could make it to Dick Whittington tomorrow. The box office refused to put the ticket as credit on my account so I could book for next year, and wanted two and a half quid to change the tickets. Of course the trains are refusing refunds as well despite warnings of it being dangerous to travel. Common sense and decency are drowning in bureaucracy.

Theatres have policies, and that's money they're losing if they put it as a credit on your account as your tickets for tomorrow evening will likely not sell - whilst I understand it's not the outcome you want, the theatre is a business and has to think of their operational costs... |

Loved the Oxford Playhouse’s Sleeping Beauty tonight. Very clever script, great songs, well performed.

Anyone seeing any of the adult offerings this year? A fair few to choose from it seems. We're off to see Cinderella at the King's Head, Islington. They're offering a number of adults only performances and we've booked for one of those. kingsheadtheatre.com/whats-on/cinderellaIt caught my eye because it's written by Andrew Pollard who wrote and was the dame at the Greenwich Theatre panto for many years - our regular panto when our kids were growing up. And it has puppets from the Little Angel which we also regularly enjoyed. |
