Review – Skindred, The Smile Tour, O2 Guildhall Southampton

Entertainment Reviews
Published on November 12, 2023

By Lewis Maclean. Southampton Guildhall felt very much in high spirits when I walked in (November 11). Skindred are no strangers to the venue, having played here several times before. I noticed it filled up quickly early on. An extra bit special tonight too, because it was sold out....

Review: The Full Monty, Mayflower Theatre, Southampton, 7 November 2023

Review: Antisemitism: a (((musical))), God’s House Tower, Southampton, November 1

Entertainment Reviews
Published on November 3, 2023

By Lewis MacLean. A show about antisemitism is always going to be important. The thought of trekking across Southampton in a storm did not seem appealing but the timing, with global events, seemed to add some weight to the event too. Although this evening’s performance was more about society...

Review – Only the Poets, The Joiners, Southampton, November 1 2023

Entertainment Reviews
Published on November 2, 2023

By Chris Richards.  It’s the last night of their UK tour and you can feel it. Their pride, excitement and elated exhaustion pours into the crowd and lifts them. Literally, we were all jumping like loons in the end. This is truly significant for me as I walked into...

Entertainment Reviews
Published on October 25, 2023

By Graham Hiley   Peter Pan Goes Wrong – Oh no it doesn’t! This Mischief production at the Mayflower was absolutely flawless – despite the many mistakes. Plenty in the packed theatre had clearly seen sister shows such as The Play that Goes Wrong or Magic Goes Wrong and...

Review – Spontaneous Potter Kidz – Theatre Royal Winchester, October 22

Entertainment Reviews
Published on October 22, 2023

By Charlotte Ndupuechi As so many shows now ask people not to join in and singing along can mean you are asked to leave, this show was a refreshing change. Spontaneous Potter Kidz was like Harry Potter meets the old 90’s TV show Whose Line Is It Anyway?  Four...
