REVIEW: SUMMER NIGHTS IN SPACE (The Vaults) ★★★
Summer Nights In Space is a convivial, bright, jocular musical with original music and songs, though beware, Oklahoma this ain’t! Astronaut John Spartan has accomplished his lifelong ambition and made it into space, as Captain of Auxiliary Transport Shuttle 4. However, after three years with only the mechanical voice of the all pervading rocket ship’s […]
REVIEW: WAYWARD (The Vaults) ★★★★★
Cat Loud’s blend of storytelling and song is comic, warm, sharp edged and broadly political but never bitter. She tells her surreal story interspersed with a wonderful selection of contemporary and classic, multi genre songs, sung beautifully. This is political, feminist, cabaret with a bite, featuring Cat Loud who is a London-based writer and performer […]

REVIEW: F*CKING MEN (The Vaults) ★★★

This is of course partially the case, yet F*cking Men is also infused with sobering honesty and a frankly […]
