It’s Les Mis if you squint. A musical based on turbulent French history, doomed love, and flags brandished like a crusaders’ Warhammers. Except this is not the longest running musical in West End history. This is its weird cousin Martin Guerre.…
Though the originating Disney team doesn’t seem to be involved, the vibe of the film is perfectly maintained. Bryan Louiselle takes over the musical aspect, adapting and producing the soundtrack as well as writing new songs. David Simpatico writes the book: his script can be a bit cheesy and strai…
Coming-of-age plays are not new, but they vary hugely in quality and impact. Danny Lee Wynter's new work, Ilford Boy is a witty, sensitive and beautifully performed piece of theatre that will warm your soul and break your heart…
