BWW Album Review: GROUNDHOG DAY THE MUSICAL (Original Broadway Cast Recording) is Charmingly Animated
A musical adaptation of 1993's Groundhog Day starring Bill Murray and written by Danny Rubin and Harold Ramis may not seem like the most plumb choice for Broadway.

Since its first publication as a comic strip in 1938, The Addams Family has seen many incarnations, but did not become a musical until it launched on Broadway in 2010.
BWW Review: RICHARD III, Arcola Theatre
Greg Hicks' Richard III twists and turns his evil until he's left with nobody to hate, screaming for a horse and escape.
BWW Review: LIFE OF GALILEO, Young Vic
A timely revival of the Brecht epic continues the 2017 Young Vic season with a vengeance.
BWW Review: THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG, Exeter Northcott Theatre

BWW Review: FOOTLOOSE, Richmond Theatre
There seem to be something consistently appealing about the music of the 1980s; acts such as Rick Astley and Bananarama seem to attract more concert-goers today than they did in their heyday.

The first in a series of film concerts dedicated to the massively successful Harry Potter film franchise is currently making its way around the world, stopping off for a few days at the historic Royal Albert Hall.
BWW Review: 110 IN THE SHADE, Ye Olde Rose and Crown Theatre

When we enter the theatrical world, we must suspend disbelief.
