Little Women
Leeds Grand Theatre

What a lovely night!
I’m a huge musical theatre fan, but it was nice to see something a bit different. There were little moments of song in this production, which were beautifully done.

From start to finish it’s hilarious, saucy, energetic and INSANE….LY good. And also just insane.

A Thousand Splendid Suns
Leeds Playhouse

A beautifully staged, thought-provoking and moving production. The harsh realities conveyed were sometimes difficult to watch, but themes of love, friendship and resilience shone through.

Cruel Intentions

I had a great night. The show was fun, witty, a little bit naughty 😉 and packed with fab 90s songs woven into the story.

Les Misérables: Let the People Sing
LAOS

I wasn’t sure what to expect from an ‘amateur’ production of my favourite show. It was far from amateur. It was fabulous. I laughed and cried in all the places I was supposed to.

Animal Farm
Leeds Playhouse

An outstanding piece of theatre. It absolutely deserves the Olivier Awards nomination it received. Everything about the show is exceptional - cast, staging, lighting, costumes, movement, sound, BSL integration, accessibility, inclusivity...
