Soho Cinders at the Charing Cross Theatre

Oct 29, 2019Oct 29, 2019 / thelastressort / Leave a comment

Despite having various lives since it first premiered in London in October 2011, this is my first time seeing Soho Cinders.  The premise is simple enough, a contemporary gay retelling of the Cinderella story.  The book created by Anthony Drewe and Elliot Davis is full of comedy, modern twists and it is far from a … Continue reading Soho Cinders at the Charing Cross Theatre

The Camden Fringe is giving me the opportunity to explore unfamiliar parts of town. Today (a Friday) took me to Crouch End for the 2pm relaxed performance of [Title of Show] at the Moors Bar. A bit of a trek for a South Londoner but well worth the effort. I didn't know much about this … Continue reading [Title of Show] at Moors Bar, Crouch End
