Sister Act
★★★☆☆ Great energy:

Based on the 1992 film starring Whoopi Goldberg, Captivate Theatre’s production of Sister Act at the Rose Theatre is full of soul and sparkle.

Brave Macbeth
★★★★☆ Enjoyably educational:
Brave Macbeth, presented by Gilded Balloon in the Rose Theatre Basement, is a beautifully pitched children’s musical combining the Scottish Play with tunes, humour and shameless messing about.

The Threepenny Opera
★★★★☆ Explosive:
The Threepenny Opera continues the verve and vitality of the Attic Collective’s previous outings, adding a musical dimension that makes for an explosive extravaganza.

Spring Awakening
★★★☆☆ Stirring:
Captivate Theatre’s Spring Awakening is a committed and occasionally thrilling production that does not quite have the conviction to carry everything off.

✭✭✭✭✩ Family fun
Young critics scheme review:
Educational, side-splitting and with just the right amount of ridiculous, Shakespeare in the Garden – Cheer Up, Hamlet is perfect for parents who want their children to be discreetly educated but without their enjoyment being compromised.
