Miss Hope Springs To Return To Wilton's Music Hall This Month


Playing the piano and singing a repertoire of all original self penned songs she is now in the 12th year of her residency at London's premiere cabaret room Crazy Coqs. Now Hope revisits fabulous Wilton's Music Hall for the umpteenth time since appearing there first in 2014.

MISS HOPE SPRINGS Marks Ten Years at The Crazy Coqs


It's been ten years since legendary musical, comedy, cabaret star Miss Hope Springs (written and performed by Mr Ty Jeffries) was first invited by Jeremy King and Chris Corbin to be resident songstress at their soon-to-open 'jewel box of a cabaret room' in Piccadilly. Hope visited the building site in a sequined high-vis jacket and hard hat, said 'Mais oui!' and launched the programme with her weekly Sunday Soirées.

Miss Hope Springs Comes to Assembly Rooms Edinburgh Fringe


Recovering showgirl Miss Hope Springs was once the toast of Las Vegas. Now she's down on her luck and highly medicated.

You'll hear hilarious stories about her Ritz to the pits life in LA, Paris and...Dungeness. Still draped in the sequins and feathers she fled the Pink Pelican Casino wearing in 1972, this ageing ingenue is no has-been, she's the ultimate never-was.

BWW Review: THE RAILWAY CHILDREN, Richmond Theatre


The Railway Children holds a special place in Britain's heart; E Nesbit's well-loved tale was first published in 1905, but most of us know it from Lionel Jeffries' iconic 1970 film, which also made a star of the teenage Jenny Agutter. This new production, faithfully adapted by Dave Simpson, has given a wider national audience the chance to see this classic tale brought to the stage.
