Review: FIGARO: AN ORIGINAL MUSICAL, London Palladium
by Mica Blackwell - Feb 4, 2025

It's a shame that Figaro: An Original Musical’s debut is a disappointing one because there's much potential to find in its intriguing concept and gorgeous score. However, more work in the writing room needs to be done if it wants to become a fully staged production.

Critics' Pick: Aliya Al-Hassan's Best Theatre of 2023
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Dec 28, 2023

I'm sure there will be more than a few sighs of relief down the corridors of the National Theatre at the deservedly raptuous reception for The Witches, the latest attempt to bring a hit show to the stage at this lucrative time of year.
