All Change

Just when you imagined that you had everything sorted out with your work diary, the whole thing takes a tumble. On the plus side, the changes I had to make to my Christmas line up now feature two major shows including Oliver! at the Curve in Leicester and Funny Girl at the Menier Chococlate Factory - that latter having been sold-out within hours of being announced. So, thanks to Peter Bull and the team at Above The Stag for accommodating my reviewing mayhem, I shall sadly not be in Vauxhall on Wednesday night but in Southwark, watching Sheridan Smith's Fanny. Tinderella is itself sold out before Christmas but Peter has given me a house seat for Sunday, so that I can review the show then. As for today, I am hurtling toward Leicester as I type, to catch Peter Polycarpou's Fagin. Thankfully I still managed a swim before I left London!
