'The town of Little Happening gets an unexpected make-over when a devious and creepy stranger arrives on Mammary Lane promising personal improvement to three unhappy women.'

Molly Wobbly (formerly known as Molly Wobbly's Tit Factory) was supposed to receive its London premiere at the Hackney Empire last September. However, when a financial backer pulled out moments before the first preview the entire run was cancelled. Fast forward six months and Paul Boyd's musical is back up on its feet, running in the back room at the Phoenix Artist Club (below the Phoenix Theatre, home to the West End production of Once).

Songs From The Playground featured an evening of new music by performer and writer Jon Kristian at The Phoenix Artist Club. The event kicked off strongly with a beautifully written song ‘Stuck In Repeat’ which Jon wrote as part of the musical version of the popular film The Holiday. The number was performed by Christina Bennington and Jodie Steele who gave their all, putting a smile on everybody's face.
