Young Frankenstein

Attend the performance of Young Frankenstein on Saturday, and what a performance it was from start to finish great comedy astounding vocals and production, Tom Jeavons and Kate Sharplin vocals are spot on with tremendous support from the ensemble cast, and a outstanding performance by George Cole, who could give Marty Feldman run for is money, theatre at its best.

Panto

Another brilliant panto yesterday! We came in a party ranging from 8 to over 80 and had a ball. It was the first time at the Theatre for some of our party, but certainly not the last. Keep up the good work. David & Jackie

Oh, What a Lovely War

Friday 24th May 2024 I went to see Aunty Jen Productions of "Oh, What a Lovely War", the show was brilliant, brilliant, really great. The cast of six did an absolutely superb performance with their comedy and sometimes poignant truths, their French/German accents, their comedy, even their choreography well done. One of my best nights out.

Strictly Abba

Attended one of the best shows I've seen at the Theatre on the Steps when I saw 'Strictly Abba' on 1st June. From the moment they came on stage to when they were allowed to leave they held the audience in total magnetism. The Abba songbook is so full but Strictly Abba turned the right pages to create a fabulous selection for the audience's enjoyment. Roll on their next visit.
