Groan Ups Review - Mayflower Southampton

Growing up is an age old theme within theatre. It's a way of portraying everything from relationships, to education and the idea that our upbringing can shape who we are as adults. Placing this idea into a comedy play is one that is a sure to be a hit, and Mischief Theatre's Groan Ups got top marks this week when it took to the Mayflower Theatre stage and asked the question we all want the answer to. Do we ever grow up?

Everybody's Talking About Jamie UK Tour Review - Mayflower Southampton

 You should have been there. You should have seen it! You won't believe the things we saw that went down at the Mayflower Theatre when the absolutely spectacular cast of Everybody's Talking About Jamie took to the stage. 

I last saw Everybody's Talking About Jamie just before the first lockdown in London and it absolutely blew me away. The cast the musicality and the performance itself. As soon as I knew it was going on tour and would be visiting Southampton, I knew that I had to be there. And luckily for me, Scott surprised me with some tickets for Christmas. 


Everybody's Talking About Jamie Movie Review

 Everybody's Talking About Jamie is a show that has taken the world by storm. It's managed to appear in countries around the world and finally this tale of a Northern lad that wants to go to prom in a dress has hit the big screen. Well the small screen, but has been made into a movie either way!

Jamie was a casualty of Covid. A film that was destined to make its big screen debut, but due to to the pandemic was pushed back until it was agreed to be released on Amazon Prime. Whilst I'm sad it never had its box office opportunity, I'm glad it still made its way into the hearts of many.
