Kym Marsh stars as Rachel and her daughter Emilie Cunliffe as Young Rachel In the celebration of the 30th Anniversary of Take That’s first ever UK number 1 single Pray, GREATEST DAYS features more than 15 record-breaking Take That songs alongside a heart-warming and hilarious story of love, loss and laughter from the award-winning writer Tim Firth (Calendar Girls, Kinky Boots). The musical follows a group of five best friends in the 1990’s who are obsessed with their favourite boy band. The girls reunite more than 20 years later with a plan to see their heartthrobs one last time in what could be the Greatest Days of their lives.

GREATEST DAYS was originally produced as The Band by David Pugh & Dafydd Rogers + Take That. The UK tour of The Band originally opened at Manchester Opera House in September 2017, breaking box office records along the way.

Jhez Bermudez was there and these are his thoughts…..

Greatest Days – the official Take That musical, is at Milton Keynes Theatre all this week. I tried to have an open mind whilst watching this as I’d already seen it in its previous form called The Band and there is also a new film out of it. 

It started kind of slowly for me because it was re-telling the story of 30 years ago when Rachel (Kym Marsh) was reminiscing her life with her friends when they were just teenagers and loving the boy bands and the play contains so many revelations about their friendship – how their personalities changed as they reach adulthood later on. I think the songs of Take That were just a perfect fit for this story.

When we get our first glimpse of Kym Marsh and her younger self (played by Kym’s daughter Emilie Cunliffe) it was so right as they do look so much alike! It was a role made for them!

The first act has the girls so excited to be going to a gig of their favourites, but unfortunately as they rushed to the stage door, they find out that pop stars are often driven away from the theatre even whilst the applause is still going! They got thrown off a bus on the way home for being too boisterous like teenagers sometimes are, in fact I felt the young actresses could’ve let themselves go even more! Despite that they were still able to convey an element of fun as the script had a good sprinkling of funny lines. 

However the pace picked in the 2nd half with the girls, now middle aged re visit their favourite group at a concert in Greece. I don’t want to spoil anything but let’s just say there’s some brilliant storytelling as the ladies’ personalities once grown-up are revealed! The story becomes very poignant and once the adult actresses take over the stage really lit up and came to life! The twists and turns in the story are really unexpected.

If you enjoy stories like that or if you are a Take That fan you don’t want to miss this show! It is a must see musical, don’t just go there for the songs of Take That, go because you want to celebrate friendship, let the memories of your childhood linger and guide you to become the adult you are.

With musical finale you won’t forget, I highly recommend you getting booked in at the Milton Keynes Theatre this week!

Following on from five hit stage shows and the new acclaimed ITV series, GRACE, the work of best selling author, Peter James returns to Milton Keynes Theatre! The world premiere stage adaption of WISH YOU WERE DEAD. An all star cast includes George Rainsford, who returns to the stage after eight years as Ethan Hardy in BBC One’s Casualty, Clive Mantle, much loved for many roles including Casualty, Game of Thrones and the iconic ‘puddle’ scene in Vicar of Dibley and the multi talented actress, novelist, podcaster and winner of ‘I’m A Celebrity’, Giovanna Fletcher.

When Detective Superintendent Roy Grace and Cleo Morey take their first holiday together, they hope for a few days away from their dark worlds of murder and the mortuary. But their dream escape turns out to be the holiday from hell.

Adapted exclusively for the stage, Wish You Were Dead is the latest thrilling instalment of the Grace Series – the most successful modern day crime stage franchise, since Agatha Christie

Review:
Not so much a whodunnit as a willtheydoit, Peter James’ latest crime thriller to tour the country promises action, humour, suspense and all encased in a great set. We certainly got most of that during the first act, but as with many crime stories including those by Ms Christie, there’s such a lot of plot to set that most of the humour and a lot of suspense had to wait until act two. But it comes thick and fast in act two with the entrance of Clive Mantle playing a villain with more than one nod towards Clive’s real life friend Ray Winstone who he starred with in Robin of Sherwood. I loved Clive’s portrayal of the evil Curtis and the humour hit home every time without detracting in any way from his scary character.
George Rainsford did a good job as Inspector Grace – a character I always feel is written surrounded by fascinating people but who has no real charisma of his own! Difficult for an actor I imagine to hear his car being driven off down the drive when he still has four lines to deliver in an upstairs bedroom before rushing off on foot to chase the car which by then would almost be in the next village!
all in all, a great night’s entertainment barring the slight flaws scriptwise and one or two dodgy sound effects – baby cries and guns onstage being fired and sound coming from somewhere in the wings!

if your a fan of crime novels you’ll love it, if not you’ll enjoy it anyway – if only to see Consultant Mike Barrett from Casualty playing a villain!

Based on the Sunday Times bestseller which inspired one of this century’s most treasured films, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel takes us on a journey to India with an eclectic group of British retirees as they embark on a new life. The luxury residence is far from the opulence they were promised, but as their lives begin to intertwine, they are charmed in unexpected and life-changing ways.

Starring the icon of Hollywood’s Golden Age, Academy, BAFTA and Golden Globe-Award winner, Hayley Mills (Wild at Heart, Pollyanna, The Parent Trap), household favourite and screen and stage star Paul Nicholas (Jesus Christ Superstar, Just Good Friends, Eastenders) and Paula Wilcox (The Lovers, Coronation Street, Trying).
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is a joyous comedy about taking risks, finding love and embracing second chances, even in the most surprising of places.
Get ready for the journey of a lifetime.

“I am delighted to join the company of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, as this beautiful story of love and the importance of new beginnings receives a new life as a fantastically feel-good show. Tales that warm the heart and lift the spirit are a much-needed tonic at this time and I am thrilled to be visiting so many of the UK’s beautiful towns and cities as part of the production’s exciting journey, later this year.”

Hayley Millsll

“I’m so thrilled that my characters are stepping into a new life on the stage. They’ve been waiting impatiently for the curtain to rise, and none of them is getting any younger. So welcome again to the Marigold Hotel! We’ve assembled an amazing cast, so I hope they bring you plenty of laughs, and some warm sparks of recognition.”

^Review

Taken at a very leisurely pace Deborah Moggach’s heartwarming comedy is set in the most realistic set (stunning design by Colin Richmond) of a seriously rundown hotel in Calcutta. The excellent cast bring us an intriguing story of human relationships and the problems (& joys) of growing older.  As with any group of older people there’s lots of laughter and each one of this top notch cast bring us a masterful characterisation – each one a separate study of someone we might know. 

With such a cast, lead by Hayley Mills, Paul Nicholas & Rula Lenska, in fact all 14 of them at the very top of their game, they all connected immediately with the packed audience and we all knew straight away what each character was thinking, let alone actually saying. I must just say though as a grumpy old git myself that I did enjoy Andy Dela Tour’s ability to play just that and still bring home the laughs.

The technical team behind this production should be congratulated too, we could (for a change) see and hear everything perfectly in fact you could almost taste the concoctions from that kitchen – even during those rare moments when the cook was sober!

If you, like me enjoy an evening in the theatre that will make you smile, yet on the way home be thinking of some of the more serious  issues that it points out, this is most definitely for you!

Conclusion: If you haven’t got your ticket yet, you need to beg for one!

This year I’ve seen the spectacular at Milton Keynes, the lower budget but just as much fun at Wellingborough, the villain steal the show at Northampton and now the perfect pantomime in Shrewsbury! Beauty and the Beast has everything, great “proper” sets (not digital), fabulous costumes and the six main characters, each with their own skills brilliantly cast.

Brad Fitt as Madame Bellie Philoppe (Belly Flop, get it?) maybe laid back and relaxed in his approach, but it works and he has the packed audience hanging on his every word – and woe betide any hecklers who take on his razor sharp wit! Nurse Nelly’s costumes are utterly brilliant, completely original but outrageously funny!

Without doubt comedy juggler Tommy J Rollason (this year’s BGT) is completely at home in Panto. He plays Philippe Philoppe (flip flop – there’s another one!) with such energy and the most engaging style you’ll see on stage this year! Tommy J is an absolute natural and highly talented, keep your eye out for this name to get really big! Both he and Brad make the most of Paul Hendy’s pun-packed script! 

Disney Channel’s Samantha Dorrance is a beautiful Beauty who makes falling in love with this hideous beast (played with great charm and some strong singing by Tom Carter-Miles) seem the most natural thing in the world! 

Kane Oliver Parry plays Danton who firmly believes he’s the answer to every woman’s prayer! Kane gets the joke and plays it for all it’s worth!

I must mention the most engaging fairy you ever saw! Jo Osmond plays Fairy Nuff (there’s another) with lots of bossy-boots and humour! She put me in mind of Gladys Pugh in Hi Di Hi. In fact, if anyone is thinking of a remake…….

You’ve only got until the 8th January to see this great show and it’s almost sold out – so make a move today!

Verdict: if you have to, kill for a ticket!

Beauty and the Beast is at Theatre Severn until 8th January

This years panto in MK is a smash hit!

Lesley Joseph is just a sheer joy! I’ve seen her in all kinds of theatrical guises and I’ve never once seen her turn in a bad or even lack lustre performance. So to have her back in Milton Keynes again is the perfect Christmas present!

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is quite possibly the most lavish pantomime we’ve had at MK, the sets and costumes were quite as spectacular and eye catching as anything 8 Argyll Street, W1 has ever offered. 

Leslie Joseph as the wicked Queen Dragonella proving that she’s definitely mastered the art of being evil whilst at the same time getting every laugh! If I say any more about her, you’ll think I’m besotted – and you wouldn’t be far from the truth.

Rob Rinder as The man in the Mirror was very nearly as spectacular. I take back every misgiving I might have had about Judge Rinder appearing in pantomime. He joined in everything wearing more and more outrageous costumes and he danced along with the company’s fine professionals with gay abandon! 

It is always wonderful to see one of the country’s top comedy icons  doing their stuff live onstage and Paul Chuckle didn’t disappoint. One or two routines with the very capable Aaron James (playing Muddles) harked back – I think – to the days onstage with Barry as the Chuckle Brothers. 

Busy actress and singer Charlotte Haines makes a beautiful Snow White opposite her fine Prince Harry of Haversham. Dale Mathurin plays the prince and proves that some Shakespearean actors have  splendid singing voices too!

I must mention the chorus of dancers and the Dwarfs who all did a truly fabulous job, there’s one big special effect that will amaze you , especially if the lighting man is on his metal! 

There are several wonderful surprises this year waiting for you which I won’t spoil, but I just know you’ll be talking about them for days afterwards.

If there is a weak link this year it might be a couple of the front cloth routines but certainly not the carefully rehearsed, very slick and extremely funny Panto standard “12 Days of Christmas” 

You and all the family will be assured of a brilliant time – if you can get tickets! If you’re quick you can still get some for some performances and I know you won’t regret it! 

Verdict: Spectacular, brilliantly staged and dressed, very funny with some great dancing and singing – what’s not to like?

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is at Milton Keynes Theatre until Sunday 8th January 2023.

Review by Jhez Bermudez.

I left home on a rainy evening to watch the newly revived Sister Act at Milton Keynes Theatre and this production brought sunshine on a cold blustery wintery evening through the dazzling and stellar performances of the cast who brought joy and laughter to a responsive audience. Lesley Joseph who played the role of Mother Superior captivated us, the audience, with her superb acting skills and brilliant comedic timing. She personified the character with wit, humour and flawless delivery and her solo number deserved the deafening applause she got from an involved and entertained audience. On the other hand, Sandra Marvin who played Deloris Van Cartier delighted us with her stunning vocals and fantastic delivery of the comical sketches that elicited laughter and appreciation. I must say that t who played sister Mary Robert delighted us all with her vocal prowess and that note she held so long left us breathless for a moment which defined her amazing lungs which got me so mesmerised. In fact the entire cast made this production a success due to their undeniably livid and refreshing approach in delivering their parts. The lighting stage set up and music all made this musical a must see and the musical numbers make you want to join them on that stage because of the infectious energy and impeccable singing and dancing. One must come to watch this without remembering the film and no need to do a comparison because this production stands out for its own merit of fun, comedy and original music. If you want to have an evening of laughter and fun , this is worth your time and money which I simply call glorious. Truly it is a divine musical comedy and I loved it💖💖💖 so what are you waiting for book your tickets and be delighted.

WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY CONOR MCPHERSON

MUSIC AND LYRICS BY BOB DYLAN

Girl From The North Country is an uplifting and universal story about family and love which boldly reimagines the legendary songs of Bob Dylan, like you’ve never heard them before.  

It’s 1934 in the heartland of America and we meet a group of wayward souls who cross paths in a time-weathered guesthouse. Standing at a turning point in their lives, they realize nothing is what it seems. But as they search for a future, and hide from the past, they find themselves facing unspoken truths about the present. 

The Broadway production of Girl From The North Country, currently playing at the Belasco Theatre, has received seven Tony Award nominations including, Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical, Best Direction of a Musical, Best Orchestrations, Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role and Best Performance by an Actress in a Featured Role in a Musical – The production was also nominated in the Best Musical Theatre Album category at the 2022 Grammy Awards.   

Writer and Director Conor McPherson said of the Dublin and UK Tour cast “It’s a joy to be working with our supremely talented new cast. Each of them brings a terrific range of experience and energy to the show. it’s an absolute delight to embark on this new adventure together.” 

Bob Dylan said at the opening of the Broadway production: “To be associated with Conor McPherson is one of the highlights of my professional life. It goes without saying the man is a genius for putting this thing together and I’m thrilled to be a part of the experience. My songs couldn’t be in better hands.” 

Girl From The North Country first opened at The Old Vic in July 2017 to huge critical acclaim and playing to sold out audiences. It transferred to the Noël Coward Theatre in December 2017 and the production went on to have a sold out run at the Public Theater, New York in 2018.

Review by Jhez Bermudez:

• After a long and fairly stressful day at work I drove to Milton Keynes theatre for the Press Night of Girl From the North Country. Upon entering the auditoriumm, I immediately found myself being immersed into a dark period in Duluth, Minnesota in 1934. I could feel the melancholic mood as I saw the stage design which transported me into the time of the depression in America.
• Director Conor McPherson really knows how to make you forget where you are as his actors descend onto the stage with none of the usual announcements about taking pictures or mobile phones.  That opening prepares your mind for the surprises you are not expecting. I felt like a neighbour who is watching how a family go through their worries, sorrows & misfortunes in life. The superb acting and the excellent singing voices of the cast took me deeply into the experience of angst, pain, misery, the tragedy of broken dreams, unrequited love, racism, poverty – almost connected to what we are all facing in the world right now.
• To me it felt a bit slow in the first half, but brought us into the deeper aspects of such tragedy before your eyes in the second half where you become a witness of the never-ending depression each character has to go through in this dramatic play with songs of Bob Dylan which is heartwarming your soul.  So much so that I was in deep misery when I got to listen to the songs sung with such deep emotion. I was left in a sad state thinking how people suffer in such tragic moments of their lives. The Howlin’ Winds were the onstage band under the direction of Andrew Corcoran
• My friend Kelly who was with me agreed that the songs really changed the mood of this production. We were both delighted by the dazzling performance of Frances McNamee as Elizabeth Laine and the heart wrenching voice of Mrs Nielsen played by Maria Omakinwa.
• The Happy Thanksgiving Day really made me realise that no matter how hard life is, there is a reason to celebrate. Go watch this production and experience life’s tragedy unfold before your eyes which is almost like watching Blood Brothers and Billy Elliot that light can still shine amidst the darkness.
• Jhez Bermudez

The Shawshank Redemption is at the Milton Keynes Theatre until 22nd October. 

Based on Stephen King’s 1982 novella Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption and adapted by Owen O’Neill and Dave Johns, this thrilling stage production examines desperation, injustice, friendship and hope behind the claustrophobic bars of a maximum-security facility.

The 1994 feature film, starring Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman, was nominated for seven Academy Awards. The Shawshank Redemption went on to become the nation’s favourite movie and a huge source of inspiration to film makers, with The National Film Registry citing the film as “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”.

Despite protests of his innocence, Andy Dufresne is handed a double life sentence for the brutal murder of his wife and her lover. Incarcerated at the notorious Shawshank facility, he quickly learns that no one can survive alone.

Andy strikes up an unlikely friendship with the prison fixer Red, and things take a slight turn for the better. However, when Warden Stammas decides to bully Andy into subservience and exploit his talents for accountancy, a desperate plan is quietly hatched…

This production sees Joe Absolom take on the role of the wrongly convicted Andy Dufresne with Ben Onwukwe as his inmate Ellis “Red” Redding.

Joe Absolom’s impressive TV career has barely seen him off our screens in twenty-five years: from Matthew Rose in EastEnders to Al Large in Doc Martin, Christopher Halliwell in A Confession and Andy Warren in The Bay. 

Joe Absolom said, “The Shawshank Redemption is one of my favourite films, an incredibly moving tale of friendship and injustice, and I’m thrilled to be playing the iconic role of Andy Dufresne on stage around the UK”.

Ben Onwukwe boasts a 30-year stage career including leading roles with the RSC and the Royal Court, as well as 11 years on TV as Recall McKenzie in London’s Burning and, more recently, the role of Jackson Donckers in Professor T.

Ben Onwukwe said, “I’m delighted to be returning to the role of “Red” in this amazing production. The Shawkshank Redemption film is one which many hold close to their hearts, and it’s exciting to be bringing Stephen King’s story to new audiences. It is a modern meditation on HOPE and in these times, it is Hope that we need”.

My thoughts on this production:
With a very strong cast behind them, Ben Onwukwe and Joe Absolom make a formidable team. with an excellent set giving the accurate impression of a cold, drab, stone prison exactly as described by Stephen King in the original book. At the beginning, Ben Onwukwe as Red has the unenviable but necessary task of quite a lengthy monologue to set the scene and tell the tale of his friend and fellow prisoner Andy, but he is a very commanding actor who has no trouble in quickly getting us – and keeping us spellbound during the narrative.
As you would expect after seeing him in many roles in TV dramas, Joe Absolom got the role of Andy Dufresne spot on! if anything he underplayed it which was just what was needed – we believed and liked the character of Andy from the start.
All of the characters in the story are so well defined by this great cast and, with the set and subtle use of sound effects (clanging prison doors etc), i dont know if Stephen King has been over to check out this latest production of his work, but I’m pretty sure he’ll love it when he does!

The Shawshank Redemption is currently on a major tour of the UK and I’d quite like to see how it works in a smaller more intimate space, but get to see it this week in MK Theatre if you can!

The Shawshank Redemption is at the Milton Keynes Theatre until 22nd October

The world premiere production of FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS: THE MUSICAL is set to visit Milton Keynes Theatre 04 – 08 October with an all star cast. 

FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS: THE MUSICAL is based on the true story of the Cornish singing sensations, Fisherman’s Friends, and the hit 2019 film about their life.  When a group of Cornish fishermen came together to sing the traditional working songs they’d sung for generations, they hoped to raise a few quid for charity.  Nobody, least of all the fishermen, expected their story to end on the Pyramid stage of Glastonbury.  Packed with sea shanties, FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS is a feelgood voyage about friendship, community and music.

Featuring hit shanties made famous by the band including Keep Haulin’, Nelson’s Blood, No Hopers Jokers & Rogues and many more.

FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS: THE MUSICAL is produced by ROYO with Flying Fish Productions, Mighty Village, Island Records, David Mirvish and Cornwall Playhouse Productions

Unfortunately for me, I had a seat in one of several patches in the circle at MKT with a sound problem that I have complained about over the years! Maybe its time for the sound engineer to actually take a walk round the entire theatre! So, wether it was this technical problem or not but several of the cast sounded as though 8 shows a week was telling on their voices! Although the actual words being sung ldidn’t reach us in our little corner of the row F in the circle i did speak to several of the more fortunate audience members during the interval and they confirmed my suspicion that the show might benefit from a re-think to get a little more book and maybe a couple less shanties! By the interval (72mins in) we only got as far as the record producer persuading the fishermen to record their first try. As the umpteenth shanty started for no apparent reason – but then if there was a reason i wouldn’t have heard it! – i almost expected cries of ”Oh get on with it!”

When I saw the original documentary I was truly excited at the wonderful story of the Fishermen’s Friends. I liked very much the idea of the musicians being part of the cast, I liked the set, I thought they got round the problem of having mostly the fishing inn but sometimes scenes in the boat in a rough sea so well – I just felt that the lib could be revised even at the cost of a couple of verses of shanty! The man sitting one side of me loved and joined in with every sea shanty, whereas the man sitting the other side of me slept through a great deal of it. so I dont expect everyone to agree with my thoughts.

Fisherman’s Friends is at Milton Keynes Theatre until 8th October.
