So ingrained is the music and lyrics of The Sound of Music, thanks mainly to the film version, that attending this attraction at the Capitol is like being at an elaborate and colossal karaoke.

For sixty searing minutes we are in the company of these women as they crack wise and fantasise about the life they might have, could have, had, if they hadn't followed this brilliant career-path.

Yes, this is Ancien régime stuff. It's frivolous, frothy, and fun. It gives a remarkable insight into a tiny aspect of life in late 18th century France. It's amazingly well performed. And you won't get another opportunity to see it for a long time, so go.

Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.
Stage Kiss | New Theatre
There’s a palpable playfulness to these performances, disciplined, drilled and delightful. There’s fire, bite and fun and lots of kissing.

Sistren | Griffin Theatre Company
Iolanthe and Janet Anderson work in cosmic, comedic accord, characterisation charismatic, timing impeccable, delivery precise, together a tour de force that ascends the cliché.
At Home at the Zoo luxuriates in the intensity of Albee’s ferocious humour, mood and impulse, a plunge into loneliness and aloneness leavened by laughter.
