Theatre Review: The Addams Family @ Stoke Rep Theatre

As the producer of the enormously popular View from the Wings - the Moorlands Radio Arts & Entertainment Podcast, I don't normally get out to see shows of any kind.

Today, Saturday 17th October I broke out of captivity to attend the afternoon performance of Stoke Youth Musical Theatre Company's latest offering […]

On many occasions I have been persuaded to watch a new production that purports to be an offshoot of the classic comedies. So it was with a little apprehension that I made my way to the New Vic.

Pleasing to say that any worries had disappeared within minutes of the start of this […]

Dave Stringer in Conversation with Russell Kane and Natalie Casey aka Romeo & Juliet

In […]
