Review: L'ELISIR D'AMORE, Dorset Opera Festival
The Dorset Opera Festival finds the perfect setting for Gaetano Donizetti's L'elisir d'amore. This little gem of an opera company cleverly relocates the action from an Italian town to its own surroundings in Hardy's countryside.

Review: THE CHERRY ORCHARD, Starring Kenneth Branagh, Royal Shakespeare Theatre

Brimming with the composer's trademark emotion, Max Webster directs a captivating production at The Grange Festival, featuring an exceptional pe…
Review: ANYTHING GOES, Kilworth House Theatre
There's a cruise ship in the grounds of Kilworth House this summer. The ship's grand upper deck, with its gently smoking cowl vents and sweeping staircases, sits nestled among the woods, and is the setting for Kilworth's annual musical production, which this year is Anything Goes.…
Review: LA BOHÈME, The Grange Festival
