My last visit to this years Norfolk and Norwich Festival was to The Adnams Spiegeltent to see the specially commissioned show SHIFT, by the Barely Methodical Troupe. SHIFT Explores shifting perceptions and realities through power based acrobatics mixing show-stopping circus tricks with the emotional punch of theatre. From the instant they stepped on stage there … Continue reading Barely Methodical Troupe – SHIFT

Ben Folds and A Piano
I was first introduced to Ben Folds in 2008, when the sound technician at the theatre I worked at used the Ben Folds Five as sound check music. By the end of the week I had to ask him what was playing and it was instantly added to my very small iTunes library- which at … Continue reading Ben Folds and A Piano
Shakespeare With The Handlebards
Last Friday I saw my first ( and sadly probably only) outdoor theatre of the summer. Shakespeare's As You Like It performed by brilliant company - The Handlebards. The Handlebards started their journey in 2013 and are currently two troupes of cycling actors who carry all of the necessary set, props and costume to perform Shakespeare … Continue reading Shakespeare With The Handlebards
Rear View – IOU
I couldn't have got more lucky with the weather for my last trip to this years Norfolk and Norwich Festival. Glorious sunshine turning into a stunning sunset totally enhanced this innovative outdoor performance. IOU have designed a vehicle and created a show called Rear View- who's world premiere took place here at the NNF. I … Continue reading Rear View – IOU
Driftwood- Casus Circus
Last night I went on my first trip of the week to The Norfolk and Norwich Festival. This time I was walking up to The Spiegeltent in Chapelfield Gardens. It was another beautiful day so once I collected my ticket it was all about a pint of cider. I was at the Adnams Spiegeltent to … Continue reading Driftwood- Casus Circus
Super Sunday- Race Horse Company
Race Horse Company are an all male Finnish Contemporary Circus Troupe created in 2008 with an aim “to take over the world” and after what I saw last night I think they actually can! Race Horse Company turned the Theatre Royal stage into an abandoned fairground and proceeded to run riot on the equipment that … Continue reading Super Sunday- Race Horse Company
Grand Canyon South Rim Tour
As soon as we started talking about our trip to Las Vegas we all agreed there was no way we were not visiting the Grand Canyon. There were so many tour options out there, ranging through all sorts of prices, with helicopter rides, raft rides, MULE rides and bright pink hummers. After much discussion and … Continue reading Grand Canyon South Rim Tour
The Pure Scent Candles.
For me, candles are normally a winter thing. In the summer I love to have the windows open and let the breeze through the house ( and the spiders too eeeek!) so burning a candle would seem a bit like a waste of money. But there are some times when its a typical British summer, … Continue reading The Pure Scent Candles.
#Ihidbehindmyscarf: Crimson Peak Edition.
I don't do horror films. Mainly because of two reasons. I honestly think they are sometimes actually just bad films, and two - I am easily scared. Like, I can't watch the trailer for the new Paranormal Activity film because it freaks me out too much, scared! So what better an idea than to start … Continue reading #Ihidbehindmyscarf: Crimson Peak Edition.
Review – Memphis – Shaftesbury Theatre- London.
Memphis has been in London's West End since last September, and even though I am a frequent theatre-goer, I've just not had the chance to see it. It was on the list with War Horse, Made in Dagenham (which I missed) and Beautiful - the Carole King Musical. But I can now cross it off! … Continue reading Review – Memphis – Shaftesbury Theatre- London.
