  • Let's Dance - U3A Daytime Disco

    6th February 2025

    Some of the disco members have for some time been asking if it could change back to Monday, the day we started with, while others have said that they prefer Tuesday, so a vote was taken, and although not everyone in the group voted, there were more votes for Monday, but also several people who...

  • The Producers at Menier Chocolate Factory - Theatre group visit

    2nd February 2025

    What could be more distasteful than two Jewish producers making a musical with Adolf Hitler as the hero. Well this is it! Over two hours of delicious political incorrectness, over two hours of hilarity. I don’t think any minority group was left unscathed. Brilliantly outrageously funny.  ...

  • The Accidental Death of an anarchist Bromley Little Theatre

    11th January 2025

    Originally set in Italy, based on a true incident in Milan in 1969, this English adaption of Dario Fo’s play is by Tom Basden. I didn’t read director Pauline Armour's notes until after I’d seen it so I have to say in spite of the fact it appears to be just a farcical comedy the underlying...

  • The Devil Wears Prada at the Dominion Theatre
