Singin’ in the Rain
★★★★★ Gloriously ebullient
They have turned the tap full on at the Festival Theatre this week, for the return of Jonathan Church’s phenomenal production of Singin’ in the Rain, adapted from the classic MGM movie.
Nativity! The Musical
★★★★☆ Unstoppable:
Nativity! The Musical, at the Festival Theatre until Sunday, is an unashamedly cheesy romp that bears little serious examination, but whose energy and sugary optimism will brook no argument.
Guys and Dolls
★★★★☆ Gambolling gamblers:
A story of gamblers, good girls and good time girls on the streets of New York, Guys and Dolls at the Playhouse all week isn’t a gamble if you’re after a good time.

✭✭✭✭✭ A bigger splash
There is more than the promised 12,000 litres of water covering the stage at the Festival Theatre – spectacle, enjoyment and sheer old-fashioned good fun come flooding in too.
