Big Finish Review: King Lear

Posted on by indiemacuser

Review by Doctor Squee (Host of Gallifrey Stands Podcast)

King Lear is one of my favourite Shakespeare stories. It’s deceptive in its relatively simple premise. A King with a huge ego asks his daughters to profess their love for him in increasingly over the top ways. 2 of his daughters are all to happy to go along with this to get their share of his kingdom in exchange. The youngest and most beloved daughter knows better and won’t just say how much she loves him, as this knows the words mean nothing when said just to get his things. She gets pushed aside for this, whilst the 2 daughters who did inherit his kingdom start giving him less and less place within it, to the point where he ends up on the street with his fool and he learns what a fool he has been.

Review: Matthew Bourne’s Edward Scissorhands

Posted on by indiemacuser

Written by Lewis Mainwaring

Wales Millennium Centre, Cardiff – 12th March 2015

Edward2014JP-07050Matthew Bourne‘s adaptation of the classic Tim Burton motion picture is a choreographic masterpiece.

This touching love-story tells the bitter-sweet tale of a boy created with only scissors for hands, left alone in the world. Edward struggles to find his place in a strange new suburban world where the mostly well-meaning community struggle to see past his strange appearance to the innocence and gentleness within. This struggle is not shared by one girl who Edward falls in love with.
