Michael Ball signing autographs at Hairspray stage door

Hairspray in the West End

We queued up at the stage door after seeing Hairspray on Satuday night and were lucky enough to meet Michael Ball who is absolutely fantastic in the show by the way. I even managed to get him to autograph my programme. If you are ever in London and wondering what West End show to see I would definately recommend Hiarspray - a really feel good show.

Evita - my review

Andy and I went along to the opening night of Evita at the Kings Theatre, Glasgow. My mother used to play the songs of musicals when i was young so i already knew most of the words to all the song, i had seen Madonna put in the performance of her life in the film and then not get an Oscar - which i thought she deserved for her portrayal of this tragic character, but nothing could have prepared me for the emotional stage show.

I am not afraid to share that i shed a tear near the end - so if you go along remember the kleenex. The understudy took the stage on opening night which seemed a bit risky to me but she really put in a passionate and emotional performance. I would be happy to recommend this show to anyone looking for a good night out.
