Music Theatre 2000 present Victoria Wood’s Acorn Antiques The Musical!


If Brucie deserves a knighthood then where is Victoria Wood’s gong? A CBE is scarcely enough for this talented woman.

Since winning New Faces back in 1974 she has continuously delivered comedy, songs and drama, on both TV and the stage. Acorn Antiques The Musical! is her all singing, all dancing, stage version of the spoof soap that lampooned the genre and won the hearts of the nation.

» Michael Ball interview – Cutting It

Michael Ball is busier than ever with the launch of his new album, a live tour & Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street at Chichester Festival Theatre. Andrew Kay talked to him as he finished his long run in Hairspray

Latest TV

» Brighton Lights 31

Our new programme for thelatest.tv sees Juice FM presenter Guy Lloyd investigate all manner of things. He starts off with chart-topping band The Hoosiers who were mega-successful a couple of years ago, were dropped by their major label and have become fashionably independent. Their chart-topping album cost £1 million to record, their new album £100 and we reckon it's just as good. We have exclusive footage of this new record. Guy does crazy-golfing with them, checks out their sound-check and witnesses the fans' adoration of the band at Audio in Brighton. In future shows Guy will be doing waxing, Dot Cotton, air guitar and needs your suggestions for more crazy things (or people) to do. Send to bill@thelatest.co.uk
