Review – Kim Churchill
He’ll make you want to take your clothes off. Kim Churchill is a beautiful man inside and out, and backs it up with some mighty good talent.
Review – Breaker
Anyone who heard the recent performance of Peer Gynt perfomed by the BBCSO featuring Irish actors playing the dramatic parts will have noticed (or ‘can imagine’ for you blushing culture-absconders) how perfectly appropriate the brogue fitted with the folksy mythical themes and characters.

Review – Fright or Flight
A quirky, almost wordless performance of dance, acrobatics and physical humour. Mostly plotless, the show revolves around different scenes featuring unique bird-like characters played by the three talented performers of 3 is a Crowd.
