Time never changes, it just alters the angle in which you stare at it, until finally you realise that what has already gone, has returned, and normally with even greater ferocity and fire than before.

Cinderella, the heroine to whom we all perhaps first fall in love with on our first trip to the theatre has fallen foul of her Ugly Sisters’ wrath and bitterness, the guiltless and faultless young woman is given no chance to shine in her own right and as each child understands, the ugly of heart must never prosper, they must be taught a lesson to play fair.

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.

Thanks to the internet, we all know a Karen, or at least a facsimile of her, the crude interpretation that could have gone by any name, but which represents the base line to which we expect certain individuals to have their say. The moment of excruciating agony when a waiter or anyone in the service industry comes up against their nemesis, the one who demands to see the manager over the most frivolous and bizarre claims, that is where the Karen comes in, all seeing, all justified, and either scary or frustrating.

Musicians: Howard Gray, Ben Gladwin, Mike Woodbine, Greg Joy.
Anarchy in the hands of the theatrical and the artistic arguably achieves more than a demonstration and the gnashing of teeth; the power of laughter bringing the pompous to their knees, the smallest prick of hilarity bursting the bubble of the forever vain and the insincere pretentious. Anarchy rules, and its rules are simple, make them laugh and you will have a show that is beautiful to the core and one with a polished sheen attached to it.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
Cast: Sam Alton.
We are arguably incapable of dealing with the benefit of the internet without descending to the point of the rabble rousing crowd and the actions of the school yard bully; no matter the virtue that can be found in social media, there is an open wound in which we cannot but help pick at, keep scratching at till it bleeds, and in the end we end up looking for friendship in all the wrong places.

Tis the season to be jolly…even in dreams, for sleep maybe be restful, but it is to the Rock ‘N’ Roll Panto that the pulse is raised, the glitterball comes out of hiding and the lights sparkle, all of which only can mean that music, theatre and the uplifting seasonal fantasy is back; that there is no time to nap, for Sleeping Beauty will keep you feeling alive and ready to party.

The unrelenting fascination with arguably two of 19th Century’s literature finest, and most disturbing of creations, Victor Frankenstein and the Monster is one that perhaps asks the most salient, complex and frightening questions to nag at the mind and heart of all who have read Mary Shelley’s intense novel.
