A revolution by farm animals is the base line of this puppeteer performance. Never have I seen anything so well thought & put together like this. A brilliant team of puppeteers really showcased this story so well, brought humour to the table & really painted the picture of what they were trying to show to the audience. I did find some parts to the show rather creepy but we move haha. But regardless it was so well thought of and so much effort was clearly put into this show. Lets drive right in.

I was kindly invited back to the Belgrade Theatre to review the latest performance of Fighting Irish. Which is a true story by Jamie McGough, of a young boy fighting for his Irish title in boxing. My family background is Irish so I really resonated with this performance and understood everything it was about, with how Irish people weren't accepted many years ago, about the history of the Irish etc. It was lovely to see this as growing up, my Mum always told me stories and taught me about the history of Ireland and where our ancestors are from in Ireland. So it was so lovely being able to relate to this production.
I had the pleasure of attending the press evening for the performance of Da Vinci Code that was showing at the Belgrade Theatre Coventry this week, and my goodness what a show it was. I'm completely new to this show as well as the novel. I've always heard about it but never really looked into it or watched the film. Which I'm actually glad I didn't as watching shows in the theatre, they just tell the tale so much better in my eyes. Can't beat a good theatre performance. Let's dive into this historic murder mystery then shall we?
