Review – EastEnd Cabaret: Notoriously Kinky
EastEnd Cabaret were one of our favourite acts last year and with good bloody reason too.
Antiview – Doku Rai – You, Dead Man, I Don’t Believe You
Doku Rai producer Alex Ben-Mayor is not a simple farm boy.
Review – RESPECT
Covering early hits like “Chain of Fools” to eighties chart topper “Pink Caddillac” this group seemed hell bent on making sure everyone had a great time.

Fitzhigham explodes on to the stage with the manic energy we’ve come to expect from British comedy.
Review – Stephen K Amos: The Spokesman
The Spokesman is the latest stand-up effort from British comic, Stephen K Amos. Sadly, it feels almost as though Amos has run out of material.
Review – Raton Laveur
The most vacuous platitudes have their place, and Raton Laveur is a rich and delightful comedy experience that really will sound that triad, and definitely ought not be missed.
