Mrs Lovett’s Spies

I popped along to a local school to see their production of the musical Sweeney Todd, not just because it is one of my favourite musicals, but also it is next year’s production by the Hessle Theatre Company and I like to begin my preparations early. Not wanting too much fuss I travelled incognito so [...]

A final photo…

..from Barnum of the equipment used backstage to support Neil as he did his tightrope act across one side of the stage to the other. Looks pretty heavy duty tackle that.

Upping The Tempo

Clashing with the Barnum production this week has been two football matches at the KC stadium and I knew I would miss them both. Well, that was what I thought until I realised that I would be able to make the last part of the afternoon Saturday match if the matinee performance finished in time [...]

Roll Up! Roll Up!

This week is the Barnum production and I am dashing from work to the theatre each evening. I always guessed this would be a challenging production because of all the additional skills we need for the circus element of the show, but people are standing up well to it.

Après moi, le déluge

With river levels in the area rising after the recent heavy rain, and more predicted this evening, it is interesting to compare a photo I took this morning with one I took at the same spot in September. Taken at the point on the track where the Trans Pennine Trail crosses the Holderness Drain, we [...]

Talking Heads

Spotted this new addition to the local streetscape. Part of the Business School extension to the local university, their official title is ‘Moving Matter’. Two heads are always better than one.

Cast Your Vote

What’s On Stage is running a poll for the site’s annual Theatregoer’s Choice Awards and I notice an old friend, Michael Jibson, is nominated for an award in the category of ‘Best Supporting Actor in a Musical’ for his part in ‘Take Flight’ at the Menier Chocolate Factory. Michael was, in his youth, an active [...]
