BILLY ELLIOT – THE MUSICAL at the Bristol Hippodrome
This show falls in a tradition of emotionally powerful, thematically northern based, working-class stories that deliver more than they seem to offer. A little lad struggles to overcome the deep-seated prejudices of his ...
Akram Khan’s GISELLE at Bristol Hippodrome
There are times when the best of everything combines to produce something exceptional. Akram Khan’s spellbinding Giselle is a fine example. The reimagining of this classic tale of love and betrayal has been fuelled by ...
WNO’s KISS ME KATE at Bristol Hippodrome
First of all I must state that I am a great fan of Welsh National Opera. I look forward to all their shows and I would rate them second only to Covent Garden. I think they are original, daring and innovative so I was ver...
BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY’S at Bristol Hippodrome
This story is less substantial than Isherwood’s, and its lack of depth limits what can be achieved in a stage adaptation. The original is too fragmentary, too implausible and too reliant upon Capote’s dazzling prose ...
SISTER ACT at the Bristol Hippodrome
The plot bears a striking resemblance to that of Some Like It Hot. Deloris, a nightclub singer witnesses a murder committed by her boyfriend, nightclub owner and petty gangster, Curtis. In order to avoid being bumped-off...
FOOTLOOSE: THE MUSICAL at Bristol Hippodrome
Footloose started life as a 1984 film musical, starring Kevin Bacon. Reviews were mixed, but it went on to gross over 80 million dollars. It is yet another tale of a stranger coming to a sleepy backwoods town and shaking...
THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW at the Bristol Hippodrome
The Time Warp hit town last night, and in the time honoured way, whether travelling in to the centre on the number 4 or the 43, many succumbing to its pleasures felt compelled to wear nothing but undies, fishnets and bas...
GUYS AND DOLLS at the Bristol Hippodrome
I am very partial to Guys and Dolls, and always have been. I loved the film, if only because Marlon Brando had all the good songs and Frank Sinatra was almost a support act. I saw the original Richard Eyre National Theat...
CHICAGO at the Bristol Hippodrome
Chicago uses the same kinds of provocative dance moves that Bob Fosse used in the night club sequences of Cabaret. Where some lesser musicals leave you wanting the numbers to stop and the action to continue, in Chicago t...
THE TAMING OF THE SHREW at the Bristol Hippodrome
Birmingham Royal Ballet dazzled with the athletic prowess of its Principal Dancers during this highly stylised and sumptuously costumed performance of The Taming of the Shrew . . . Choreographer John Cranko climaxes this...
THE MIKADO at the Bristol Hippodrome
The Mikado, can, on the face of it, appear as extraordinarily eccentric. There is a surface quaintness that belies the more sinister themes of power, frustrated love and judicial cruelty that run throughout the narrative...
PRISCILLA, QUEEN OF THE DESERT at the Bristol Hippodrome
. . . this is a show, a glittering, energetic, colourful, tune filled extravaganza. The laugh-out-loud costumes are such that would put any pantomime dame or ugly sister in the shade and numbers included dancing paintbr...
