The command of storytelling is one of humanities finest achievements, the insisting of developing the imagination enough to unleash a truth the individual, the ability to change someone’s mind with a single word, or to frame a narrative that has the ability to make someone get in touch with their emotions, to feel compassion where once stood silence and perhaps apathy.

Merry Christmas, Carol. Theatre Review. Royal Court Studio, Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound And Vision Rating 9/10

Cast: Eithne Browne, Jessica Dives, Rachel Hinton, Molly Madigan, Paislie Reid, Angela Simms.

Faith, hope and charity, depending on your point of view, and what your station is in life, seems to be out of favour, nestled somewhere between ignorance and damnation, lies and misdeeds.

Yet for some these qualities exist under the strong umbrella held aloft like a sword up by compassion and sometimes we need to remind others that they too can benefit from this intervention of the soul, that not everything in life should or needs to be about money, that we should be thinking of the effect the world is having on our family, to listen without needing to reply but to understand; faith, hope, charity, compassion and love, these are the gifts we should be looking to bestow.

Revenge is a pudding best served piping hot and with all the flavour, texture and fruit mixed together to be delivered with precision, timing and a smile so wide that once served it is the talk of the town, and with the score settled and the laughter bellowing all around.

Yellow Breck Road, Theatre Review. Royal Court Theatre, Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Cast: Jake Abrahams, Gemma Brodrick, Eithne Browne, Paul Duckworth, Lynn Francis, Jamie Greer.

Once in a lullaby…such dreams are made of, the chance to see how life brought you to this point, and one that comes out of shock and the game played out by adversity. All you have to remember is that to follow the Yellow Breck Road might mot lead you to the wizard, but it will lead you to a place in which the tragedy and humour of life go hand in hand, where joy is welcome, where the despicable finally get their just deserts.

The hills of Wales are alive with the sound of music, not just any old tune, its heartbeat is quickened by the tunes that made the era of Disco one of infatuation for all who danced to its rhythm and overwhelming, upbeat musical personality. Like Disco though, Dave’s caravan site and Boogie Wonderland have become down at heel, the good times have come, partied, and left without even a last groove goodbye, times are hard, Disco only lives on in the memory of some; however, there is always time for one last turn on the dance floor, one last round of reminisces and disco kisses under the glitter ball.

It is always a cause for celebration when a production comes to the stage and truly brings an audience together in its humour and the way it showcases new writing, the positive ways it uses all the actors with equal clarity and the wonderful way in which it shows the genuine appreciation due its Director. When that celebration coincides with the soft re-opening of a much loved theatre after months of renovation and updating, then it is not just a case of bring out the decorations and congratulations, then it is the keen observance and salute that only an Omnibus can provide.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * *

Cast: Roy Brandon, Eithne Browne, Danny Burns, Suzanne Collins, Carl Chase, Paul Duckworth, Emily Linden, Andrew Schofield, Francis Tucker.

Two’s company, two is the sound of laughter taken to great heights, two is a sequel to which a comedy penned by the superb duo of Dave Kirby and Nicky Alt is completely on top of its game and is one that surely will be seen as a true worthy successor to a production worth its weight in Liverpool gold.
