Fast Love a Trbute to George Michael

Just seen this band at MK theatre, amazing night and certainly bought back great memories of growing up with George Michael. If you get a chance to see them go, worth every penny. The lead singer sounds just like GM.

Fat Friends - A Big Lump of Northern Fun

Loved this - it’s a feel good, un-demanding, light hearted show, full of laughs & a fair dose of smut. Terrific atmosphere in the theatre & a packed house. Casting is superb with lots of well known faces & some incredible singing voices, though I’d...More
