Acting the Part: audition highs and lows

Posted on 20 May 2013

My foray into the industry has recently seen me encounter the most dreaded of all events: the audition. Now, there are two common types of auditions – the ‘individual monologues’ one and the ‘workshop’ one. Having gone straight to university from school, I had previously avoided the stress and powerlessness that comes with the drama school [...] Continue Reading

The Food of Love: Thatcher’s musicals?

Posted on 20 May 2013

As I’m sure you’ll know, music within the theatre had an integral part to play in responding to the death of Margaret Thatcher. The decision to keep the anti-Tory retaliation ‘Merry Christmas Maggie Thatcher’ in a performance of Billy Elliot in the West End on the evening of her passing was put down to an audience vote. I’m sure [...] Continue Reading

Brighton Fringe Review: Bianco

Posted on 20 May 2013

I saw NoFit State Circus once before, at the London International Mime Festival in the South Bank Centre’s Queen Elizabeth Hall. An auditorium of this style does no justice to the magic that can be worked in a Big Top. This time round, as before, I found myself yearning for story to connect the spectacular [...] Continue Reading

The Wicked Stage: Once – A new musical “that celebrates music”

Posted on 20 May 2013

Many Brits and Irish have long been fans of the 2006 indie film Once, especially for the music by Glen Hansard, known for his band The Frames and appearing in The Commitments: the song he wrote with co-star Markéta Irglová, ‘Falling Slowly’, won them an Academy Award for best song.

Guest blog: The Girl With The Iron Claws

Posted on 20 May 2013

Ten down, fifteen to go. I refer to the theatrical venues in which Team TGWTIC (The Girl With The Iron Claws… must find pithier tag) are currently leaving their scorch marks.

Review: Cuddles

Posted on 20 May 2013

There are certain things that we expect from vampires: they must drink blood, fear light, be immortal and be killed by a stake through the heart. However, new elaborations are gathering like cobwebs as we replace their cloaks with leather jackets and bring them into the modern day. Cuddles, a vampire tale by Joseph Wilde, foregrounds [...] Continue Reading
