Review: LOVE LIFE: WEST END UNITES AGAINST CANCER, Theatre Royal Drury Lane

On 1 February, some of the West End's most esteemed stars gathered for Love Life: West End Unites Against Cancer - a concert performance raising money for One for the Boys. The charity aims to raise awareness surrounding male cancers, encouraging men to speak up when they notice a change in their bodies, or to ask for help when they need it. The hope is that together, we can break down stigmas surrounding masculinity, health and vulnerability - and save lives while doing so.

This February, the West End theatre community will come together for Love Life: West End Unites Against Cancer, a one-night-only concert at Theatre Royal Drury Lane in support of One For The Boys, the men’s health charity working to break the silence around male cancer. Ramin Karimloo, Tom Francis, Diego Andrés Rodríguez, and more will be in attendance.

Review: SHUCKED, Regent's Park Open Air Theatre

Dying crops, a community in distress, scandals, affairs, Shucked was hailed as the pinnacle of musical comedy when it premiered in 2022. With a book by Robert Horn (writer of Tootsie and the stage adaptation of Disney’s Hercules, to mention a few credits), plus music and lyrics by country songwriters Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally, Jack O’Brien’s production lands in Regent’s Park for its UK premiere after a handful of wins and a Grammy nod too. The show might be an easy giggle, ready to charm with puns galore and a corny score, but it's shuckingly mid. Every inch is tropey and formulaic, with quips that are either the low-hanging cob or the most extravagant sexual innuendo, missing the sophistication of well-calibred humour altogether. It has plenty of moments of brilliance and the company is overwhelmingly excellent, but the material isn’t as dazzling.

Interview: “Laughter is Healing”: Actor Matthew Seadon-Young on The Thrill of Playing Gordy in SHUCKED at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre

Recently, we had the chance to speak with Matthew Seadon-Young, who is playing Gordy in Shucked. We discussed how he first found the muscial through working with Alex Newell, what it’s like to be part of an original cast for the show in London and even his favourite line - though you may need to see the show to fully understand it!
