Matthew Bourne’s The Red Shoes at the Wales Millennium Centre is the sort of show that looks effortless and, behind the scenes, is anything but.

Throughout my life I’ve sung along to Tina Turner’s songs. The anthems, the huge, instantly recognisable choruses, but watching Tina in Cardiff made me hear them differently. What I always thought I knew as powerful pop classics were, in reality, chapters of a life marked by an almost unimaginable strength.

Attention shoppers! Here & Now: The Steps Musical is fun, colourful and outright camp, essentially a love letter to queer culture that knows exactly how to party. It’s camper than a row of tents!

Last night we saw ‘& Juliet’s’ opening night at the Wales Millennium Centre, and to be honest, I arrived with quite high expectations, having fallen in love with the West End production a few years ago, and in have to admit, this performance lived up to every memory, and more.

Last night, Cruel Intentions: The ’90s Musical opened at Cardiff’s Wales Millennium Centre with every neon-soaked cliche you could hope for. As someone who hadn’t seen the original 1999 film, I was unprepared for its deliciously camp tone but be warned: this is emphatically NOT a family outing
