The Importance of Being Earnest at Leeds Playhouse

I must admit to being a bit wary of going to see this production as the press release made it sound über-woke and I am getting a bit tired of classics being manipulated to reflect the attitudes of today, rather than the time in which they were written. As it turned out, this adaptation worked…

Blood Brothers at Leeds Grand Theatre

I doubt that there is any such thing as the perfect musical but in my book this is about as close as it gets. I saw it a few years ago before I set up this website and I was impressed then but I was blown away by last night’s performance. Speaking to other reviewers…

Bugsy Malone The Musical at Leeds Grand Theatre

There is a school of thought which propounds the theory that if you do something, you should follow it through without compromise in order for it to be a success. Bugsy Malone The Musical proves this to be true by making a huge compromise thus ruining a great idea. This stage musical, as you would…

Oktoberfest at Chow Down

I would like you to ignore the text on this featured image. ‘Why has the old fool put it on the article then?’ I hear you ask. The answer is simple. This amalgam of two Leeds institutions has been so popular that extra dates have been added so, as well as 23rd and 24th September,…

Harrogate Real Food Market – Part 2

There’s an old saying that it is an ill wind that blows nobody any good and there was no better place to ratify that theorem than Harrogate Real Food Market. Covid has caused all kinds of devastation but it also seems to have provided the enterprising folk I met on Sunday with an opportunity, and…

Joan as Police Woman at Howard Assembly Room

I must admit that Joan as Police Woman is not someone I had come across before. I put that down to getting most of my new music from the TV, my ablution-accompanying radio in the bathroom being tuned to Radio 3 nowadays, and I don’t recall her being on Jools Holland’s Later. When I delved…

A Taste of Mexico at Leeds Cookery School

It’s funny how things have a way of repeating themselves. It’s funny how things have a way of repeating themselves. A couple of weeks ago I published a post about my visit to a pottery workshop and then, days later, my account of the Tequila Festival. Here the two were combined, with a masterclass on…

Autumn and Winter in Leeds 3 Opera North

We are coming to the time of year when Opera North gets into full swing with its major productions. Once again they will be at Leeds Grand Theatre so ambiance will not be found wanting. There is a theme this year with, not only a ‘reimagined’ version of Monteverdi’s Orpheus, but also a performance of…

Kitchen Residency and Pop-up Events at Kino

All I can say is that it is about time! Ever since I was taken to the pantomime at the Grand Theatre in the 1950s and on all of my visits to see a show, an opera or a gig at Howard Assembly Room since then, the evening has always ended with the audience shouting…
