In a momentous event that took place last night – 3 July 2023, the ‘Ziggy Stardust: The Global Premiere’ graced the stage at Hammersmith Apollo, marking the 50th anniversary of a concert that changed perceptions and inspired a generation. As I sat amongst the crowd in the circle area, London Mums magazine reporter Laura had the privilege of conversing with a fellow concertgoer who had attended the famous 1973 gig, where David Bowie bid farewell to his iconic Ziggy Stardust persona. It was clear that Bowie’s impact extended beyond his music, challenging societal norms and embracing otherness in a time of prejudice.

Last Thursday – 29 June 2023 – was a memorable hot summer evening. At the Hammersmith Eventim Apollo in London, Californian rock crooner Chris Isaak – who for me is Elvis‘ heir, delivered a performance that showcased his exceptional musical talent and innate ability to entertain. The concert was an amalgamation of Isaak’s own hits, covers of rock and roll classics, and his signature slapstick routine, making for a captivating experience. With a genuine love for the pioneers of rock and roll, Isaak successfully captured the spirit of the era, delighting the audience with his authentic renditions and original creations.
