Big Boys Don’t Dance is a comedy dance show from two very talented South African brothers, Ash and Bradley Searle. With Ash’s wedding only a week away, the boys engage in various activities leading up to the big event which not only… Read more →
Once again, the audience is beautifully entertained with five ten-minute plays, all unforgettable because each is a commentary on the human experience. The play selection for all three menus (at Theatre Royal and The Latest Musicbar) is superb. We are given literary… Read more →
