A Christmas Gaiety: A one off ‘Queer Orchestral Extravaganza’.
Well, what AM I getting myself into. The mind boggles, all these drag queens bouncing off each other. I told my family and my son sent me an Insta link to one of them, Cheddar Gorgeous. The OUTFITS.

Going to see Lightopia London ‘A Christmas Fantasy’ at Crystal Palace Park was a thrilling and magical experience.

,The light trail at the WWT London Wetland Centre in Barnes was beyond my expectations. I walked into the Wetlands not knowing what was going to be like. In past years I had been to other light shows so I was unsure what this one would bring to our local community.
ILLUMINATURE didn’t disappoint. The show really surprised me with the interactiveness of the whole experience in the form…
Interactive theatre meets a dining experience.Based on the 1970s BBC hit Fawlty Towers, the Faulty Towers dining experience is an immersive dinner show mixed with live comedic entertainment over a three-course meal.

I am not usually a fan of corny plays but Elf the Musical at last night’s premiere at the Dominion Theatre was entertaining enough to put me in the festive spirit.

Elf the Musical runs until 7 January 2023.

The Snowman at the Peacock Theatre was beyond my expectations.

Mayerling at the Royal Opera House Covent Garden and in a cinema near you.
Ballet as you’ve never seen it before, with classically trained dancers properly acting out the story thanks to modern choreography by the great Kenneth Macmillan. Out with the cardboard cut-outs, out with the repetitive Russian symmetry, out with the synchronised swim in tutus.
Ryoichi Hirano and Sarah Lamb in…
