Review: SEUSSICAL THE MUSICAL at Regal Theatre
by David Bravos - September 28, 2022
I once asked a friend for recommendations of good musicals, and they suggested SEUSSICAL THE MUSICAL. Having finally had the chance to see it thanks to HAMA Productions' I can readily see why my friend answered so quickly, and Seussical immediately becomes one of my favourites on the back of a wonderful retelling with top quality cast and staging.

Review: CHICACO- A MUSICAL VAUDEVILLE at The Royale Theatre At Planet Royale
by David Bravos - September 08, 2022
Vaudevilles traditionally lean far more on entertainment than on any moral or philosophical lessons, and the goal of Drew Anthony Creative’s production of CHICAGO (subtitles ‘A musical vaudeville) is simply that; a cast of entertainers, entertaining. It’s a goal they well and truly kick and that makes this production something to see.
