StageTalk Magazine is two years old. It was launched in 1^st December 2013 and since then our team of fourteen has reviewed nearly 500 shows at around thirty venues between Birmingham and Bath and Oxford and Cheltenham. We have interviewed actors and directors, including Tom Conti, Felicity Kendal, Nigel Havers, Penelope Keith, Stephanie Cole, Timothy West and many, many others. We have seen magnificent productions in some of the country’s biggest theatres and have enjoyed two-handers in tiny 50-seater fringe theatres. Our reviews are often quoted by theatres and producers alongside those from the national press. To date we have had around 157,000 hits and rising with currently about 1000 hits per day. Current figures are available at the bottom of the page.

Thanks to all the press officers, directors, actors and producers who have helped and encouraged us over the past twenty-four months. We look forward to continuing our fruitful and very pleasant working relationship with you. Also, thanks to the theatre-going public for reading StageTalk Magazine and for continuing to support our theatres.
