Showcase 2025 – I See Stars
★★★★☆ Sheer entertainment
It is easy to take Showcase for granted year after year, mainly because it consistently produces a show that is crammed full of talented performers, cleverly chosen material and well-drilled performances.
Showcase 2024 – Something About This Night!
★★★★☆ Spectacular
Showcase 2024 – Something About This Night! provides the expected tuneful extravaganza, hugely reliable while appearing remarkably fresh.
The Music Man
★★★★☆ Massive
Huge production numbers and constant energy dominate Southern Light’s The Music Man at the Festival Theatre. Undeniably frothy and not a little silly, it has a scale and magnetism that draw the audience in.
The Drowsy Chaperone
★★★★☆ Sheer enjoyment:
Considerable musicality, high production values and dollops of good fun make the Twilighters’ production of The Drowsy Chaperone at the Church Hill a real treat.
Review – Oklahoma!
★★★★☆ Long but Strong
It’s seventy years since Oklahoma! first took to the Broadway stage, with its gorgeous, downbeat opening of Oh What a Beautiful Morning, sung by cowboy Curly to the butter-churning Aunt Eller.
