 | This is an enchanting show, full of great performances and a brilliant sparkling script, great songs, fabulous swirly glamourous costumes and choreography to take your breath away, all performed whilst blowing, plucking, strumming and plinking away at a bewildering variety of musical instruments. A great show and really fun eveing out for all ages. My mum and dad loved it and my kids were enchanted. - Chris C | 21 Oct 12 |
| Is there a funnier musical around than Radio Times? I do not think so. I saw this great show in the West End many years ago and then again at the Watermill last year, but this touring production is sharper, funner and even more surprisingly, very moving. Sara Crowe may not be the knock-em-dead talent of Anna Jane Casey, but she is a lovely and charming Olive James opposite Gary Wilmot who is brilliant, taking no prisoners in the bravura star performnce of his lifetime. The cast are really something special, Vivien Carter, Christian Edwards and John Conroy and a cast of actor musicians who can really do it all. Will the next time I see this show be in the West End? I suspect it will end up there. Not to be missed by anyone whom likes a good night out, great songs, a terrific script that keeps you guessing and a fun fun fun couple of hours in the theatre. Go see it. - King Harry | 21 Oct 12 |
