It isn't every day you witness a career defining performance like the one Katie Brayben gives in Beautiful - The Carole King Musical. Brayben's portrayal of King is masterful; it's rare to see such fresh, raw talent on a West End stage. Not only does Brayben excel during musical numbers, performing King's music to perfection, but she also brings truthfulness and compassion to the text. A star in born!
Show of the Month
Oklahoma! UK Tour
Shockingly I had never actually seen Oklahoma! onstage before, yet I still found myself resisting the urge to hum along to its famous and utterly joyous score. It is an iconic show that did big things for musical theatre. Rachel Kavanaugh's brand new production has heart and soul whilst Drew McOnie's choreography impresses throughout. Ashley Day and Charlotte Wakefield lead a sensational cast, nobody takes their eye off the ball.
