I'm hoping for a good show, I loved the old musical search star ones and I do love me Gary Barlow and Graham Norton.

Watched this after illness caused our new year plans to fall through and was thoroughly cheered up. I thought it was fantastic and wish had got to see live as bet it would be better. I'm not a big play person but do have play that goes wrong booked in this year so looking forward to this event more now.

I saw this last night and thought it was good. It didn't amaze me as much as anything goes or my fair Lady did but was still a perfect way to end my theatre year. I think AJC was phenomenal in it and appears to effortlessly perform she just oozes showbiz! The lead men were good and enjoyed the staging esp the train scene which was fantastic.
On a side note noted next year's tickets for wizard of oz already on sale so went to get our usual seats, £40 where has my crucible bargain gone sure only paid £18 for preview tickets in years gone by!!

Did anyone catch David Walliams and Friend with Sheridan Smith? This series is more miss than hit but she did a good job of some pretty naff material and we even got a bit of singing. I saw this the other day, as you say very hit and miss on the whole series but this was best episode so far. I loved the Barbie skit, actually reminded me of someone I work with!!

I do hope this still comes over as would have been one I'd like to watch. If they are delaying to get Alfie I'd be gutted can think of a lot more people I'd prefer to see.

Film wise it has to be It's a Wonderful Life and National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, it's just not Christmas till I've seen them. Music, Michael Buble and Seth McFarlane christmas CDS Telly, not sure nothing much as can't think of anything which is guaranteed to be on. A sherlock christmas is always a good one!
It's also technically not Christmas till I've seen the crucible's christmas show.

A very Merry Christmas to you all, I hope wherever you are in the world you all have a wonderful time. Thank you to all of you who take time out your lives to post reviews and comments which keep me entertained and have directed me to some shows I might otherwise have missed. Let's hope 2017 is bigger and better for each of us personally, for this fabulous board and for theatre land.
XOXO

It's not been as busy as year for me as lots of things got in the way but my ultimate highlight was definitely Titanic, I'm so pleased groundhog day got delayed or I would never have seen it and without you lot recommending it would never have known about it so thank you musical people!! More highlights were Mary Poppins and Flowers for Mrs Harris. I'm hoping Annie get your Gun next week doesn't let me down as normally the crucible's christmas show blows me away. Here's to a fab 2017.

Whilst I think Alfie has a cracking pair or pipes on him he wouldn't for me have persuaded me to head to London to watch him in this. I saw a segment of him performing from the today show and it didn't wow me. Maybe as was so different to OBC recording. I do hope they still bring it over but not holding my breath on this one.

As it's coming up to musicals week it got me thinking when I'm a mega celeb (so like never!) and I get to go in strictly I'd love to do dances to show tunes every week. When listening to musical albums I do sometimes imagine what dance it would suit best. I have a list for a few dances and songs but not all.

I think I'd definitely go with 'you'll be with me like a handprint on my heart' it formed part of my eulogy letter to my mum last year. It made me smile though when sorting through her things recently to find an actual salvation army heart with a tiny handprint on. It's now one of my most treasured possessions.

Wow you lot are super organised, I used to try and remember them in my mind but as I'm very forgetful I resorted to a pinterest board to show what I've seen. I think generally will have spent most time in Crucible and lyceum in Sheffield. Think it's too late to organise myself with a spreadsheet!!!

I normally love Halloween Strictly but just seemed a bit blah this year. Not sure if it's because none of the celebs are appealing much to me. I think Claudia was my fave after yesterday was a lot better than last week's and Laura certainly improving but I'm not rooting for anyone. It's annoying me about judges crazy scoring as well I've taken to solely watching the clips on YouTube!!

I saw this last night and whilst I enjoyed it I didn't love it. Performances from Coalhouse and Mother were stunning and the staging was good, although sometimes as said previously a little busy on stage,it just didn't blow me away like Titanic did. I just can't put my finger on what was missing, maybe it was just me being slow but it just seemed very bitty with the storyline and as didn't flow easy in my mind maybe I missed something!! All in all though an enjoyable evening watching people give there all to a production.

A year or so back we went to Buxton Opera House to see Miss Nightingale it was 2nd to last ever performance and there was only about 20-30 people in the stalls. It made me feel really uncomfortable and I almost felt I had to over egg my laughing and clapping. I deserved an olivier award for my performance as enjoying patron!! I'm sure it must make it harder for performers playing to an almost empty house. I hope the last show ever was full of family and friends so it got a good send off. Oh, I saw Miss Nightingale! I saw it at the Leicester Square Theatre and I thought it was great, sad to hear it had such a small audience in Buxton. Luckily there were a few more people when I saw it in London. I'm thought it was good as well and definitely not the worst thing I've ever seen, luckily they didn't let it dampen their spirits and still put on a great show.
