BWW Review: LES MISERABLES, Bristol Hippodrome
by Tim Wright - Jul 16, 2022


It’s tough to keep a musical juggernaut like Les Misérables going. It’s even tougher to keep it feeling fresh, night after night for well over 35 years. Where others have faltered, Les Misérables has kept marching on to its own revolutionary drum beat.

BWW Review: THE RED LION, Bristol Old Vic
by Tim Wright - Feb 9, 2022


Football is not a subject often tackled in the theatre. The Red Lion though is set a world away from the riches of the professional game. Here we find the kit man, the manager and a talented, young prospect – all in the changing room of the semi-pro non-league game.

by Tim Wright - Jan 27, 2022


'Doctors must not carry their ghosts,' advises Johann Klein to his impatient assistant Dr Ignaz Semmelweis, a 19th-century obstetrics doctor. But Semmelweis is troubled: he feels it is only by carrying those ghosts that progress can be made.

Audiences Behaving Badly
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Oct 24, 2021


We know that there is an etiquette when watching a theatrical performance, but it's fair to say that in the past eighteen months many of us have grown used to watching all our entertainment solely on a screen where chatting about the performance, eating loudly and getting up mid-speech is the norm. It seems that some of this behaviour may have drifted into our theatres. Or was it ever thus?

Opinion: The Shutdown Might Spark A Theatre On Demand Revolution
by Tim Wright - Apr 23, 2020


The industry has long grappled with a simple question: how do you get non-habitual theatregoers into the theatre? COVID-19 may be a serious threat to the arts, but it's going to accelerate a long overdue change. So, enter stage left, theatre at home.

BWW Review: THE BOOK OF MORMON, Bristol Hippodrome
by Tim Wright - Jan 17, 2020


If you speak to someone who says they don't like musicals, chances are, when you mention The Book of Mormon you'll be greeted with more enthusiasm than scepticism.  So what is it about this show that manages to transcend the traditional musical theatre perceptions? The subject matter? Hearing the c-word sung to high heaven? The sight of a goose-stepping Hitler with devil horns in a dream sequence? 

BWW Review: DICK WHITTINGTON, Bristol Hippodrome
by Tim Wright - Dec 11, 2019


When on song, panto can be monumentally brilliant. An unpretentious form of theatre that can delight old and young alike. It's a shame then that this latest effort from panto behemoth Qdos is so tone deaf it makes your toes curl.

BWW Review: FUNNY GIRL, Théâtre Marigny, Paris
by Tim Wright - Nov 20, 2019


The feeling you don't conform to the mould that society expects, is a feeling familiar to most of us in our lives at some point or another. Perhaps that is what makes Funny Girl endure and continue to pack out theatres.
