Theatre 4 Everyone
Hi there, this is my blog site where I record and review music, arts, theatre, sports, food and drink and, come to mention it, pretty much anything else that I think might be interesting.
Why Theatre 4 Everyone ?
Well, I am not a professional critic, nor am I an Arts student, English Major or trained journalist - just someone who really enjoys theatre, live performances, food and drink and travel, and have been very lucky to be supported by the great venues in the North East to come along, see their shows and write about it afterwards. I try and make my reviews interesting for everyone in the hope that someone will be encouraged to go and see a performance they would not normally have seen.
I don't profess to be clever in style; I write about what I see, and like what I like, so there will probably be some common themes (I like musicals, I like strong leading characters, I like beautiful women, I like to travel and I like comedy) - that said, I won't sugar coat something if it left me disappointed - we wouldn't want to mislead anyone into seeing something I wouldn't go and see again.
Over the past 10 years I have supported Whats On North East, the region's leading online arts and events website - WONE provide listings, reviews, competitions and local news.
I don't get paid for reviewing, I do however accept free tickets to a show on the agreement that I will feature a review straight afterwards and therefore venues and production companies ask me to attend their press nights.
Likewise, by sharing my reviews it helps to raise awareness of shows on tour - I have had many production companies, directors and actors who have used my reviews as part of their own promotional material.
I am always looking for new venues, new shows, new performers, new travel so please get in touch if you have any feedback.
