Welsh National Opera’s LA BOHÈME at Bristol Hippodrome
★★★★★ As well as sweeping us up with Puccini’s glorious melodies throughout this performance, the singers’ understated body language always gave their performances plausibility. This was a memorable night ...
THE WEDDING SINGER at the Bristol Hippodrome
★★★☆☆ The Wedding Singer is a cheery, feather-light musical that offers a tuneful evening of undemanding entertainment. Featuring twenty songs, many of them skilful pastiches of 1980s pop, it is certainly not ...
SUNNY AFTERNOON at the Bristol Hippodrome
★★★☆☆ Combining the music and lyrics of Ray Davies with Joe Penhall’s biographical book of the singer songwriter, Sunny Afternoon tells the story of The Kinks getting their break in the music business and...
NOT DEAD ENOUGH at the Bristol Hippodrome
★★☆☆☆ Shaun Richie was perfectly cast and entirely convincing in a not terribly demanding role which played to his strengths, allowing his comic timing to supplement his dramatic interventions . . . There were...
The Commitments at the Bristol Hippodrome
★★★★☆ My instinct was to compare stage and film versions, having loved the movie directed by Alan Parker back in 1991. The staged version remains true to all the main characters, but has a tendency to fast for...
EVITA at the Bristol Hippodrome

★★★☆☆ Hanging off this Dahl-like story is a sentimental sub-plot about the loveless life of inventor and widower, Caractacus Potts (Jason Manford), whose children are keen to get him set up with a surrogate m...
CINDERELLA at the Bristol Hippodrome
There’s a bit of a fad amongst chefs for ‘deconstructing’ old favourite recipes. Thus you might find yourself eating a bit of crumbly something or other with something lemony and another item of creamy stuff all go...
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 ...
