It was arguably one of those nights in which it didn’t matter who the support act was, who broke the ice at the debut performance of Kacey Musgrave in Liverpool, the audience, understandably, could be seen to feel the rising tension of the long-awaited appearance of the Country superstar in their midst.

There is arguably no greater modern-day aphorism than what the idea of free-speech represents. To some it’s meaning is clear, it is the delivery of justice in the tone of their choosing, the demand to be able to denounce, criticise and condemn anything they don’t understand or which makes them feel anger. It is not enough to openly engage their mind and spout hateful rhetoric, their opinion used as a weapon, each plosive in the mouth a tiny shell of blame, they carry it into the land of social media, their ignorance basking in bliss as they accuse and censure anybody else who tries to calmly rationalise their own point of view.

We are playing dangerous games with the Devil, not the fabled creature who fell foul of a Celestial’s wrath, not the inhabitant of that Church and Bible inspired cess pit of flames and torture but instead our very own devil, our naked ambition, our rape of the land and the unquenchable thirst to dominate our will upon the throne of greed and violation. Our willingness to fracture the land in the pursuit of gas is one that will be an undoing, one in which will unleash a poison unless stopped, and one that audiences will find perfectly ripe for exploiting in a comedy-horror.

Any form of art should be there to inspire, to look upon something that has been created with disdain is not a natural state of mind, regardless say of the genre, the alluded too message, the perhaps dressed up vanity, or even the down at heel scrawled attempt, it is our soul that we are attempting to save, to express, to live with, and in that event of hoped for salvation and appreciation, we feel hope, we touch promise and dare to dream.

For the vast majority of British television watchers, there is nothing like a riddle wrapped inside a mystery and surrounded by the hard-boiled charm of the perpetual challenge, it is arguably why so many fans and audiences around the world have embraced the enigma of Doctor Who in all its glory.

..As you recount the image
of a thousand cinematic battles
and deep in water trench wait,
behind you
high above unknown gardens
rockets explode in the bold still sky,
the whizz bangs, whoops promoted
through the ranks
as other former angels die
with a bang, and dirty faces
from the powder that took their lives,
no time to scream, yell
out a warning, just a whispered
time’s up blink as they say good
bye to their mother, and all the while
behind first floor glass
This Christmas, Liverpool’s stunning new venue Hope Street Theatre will play host to the family-favourite Aladdin. Produced by Drops of Light CIC, the show will run from 1st – 30th December.
Drop of Light CIC’s Aladdin offers winter theatre goers an all immersive Christmas experience. Involving one-hundred and thirty children from the local community, fifty amateur actors and an array of specially trained local volunteers, Aladdin lets the community lead the way this Christmas. Writer Jessica Lea (Hollyoaks, Eastenders) breathes fresh life into the script by adding a new and contemporary voice to the play’s narrative.
Unity Theatre, Action Transport Theatre and DaDaFest look at an age-old fairy tale classic with new eyes this Christmas, from 30th November to 5th January at Unity Theatre. If you think you know Beauty and the Beast – think again! Friendship – not just love – is in the air, as our two central characters take the form of two unlikely friends who put their differences aside in this heart-warming festive production.

Be A Man, they say, and the world is your oyster, others have claimed the role of the gender as being an excuse to run roughshod over the population, as if wearing the skin of a man gives you the reason, the right to determine sexual politics in the 21st Century. They also say that behind every great man is a great woman, however, as other enlightened members of the female brigade have shown, perhaps that should be inside the heart of a man, beats the perfect xx chromosome wanting to get out.
