REVIEW: Half A Sixpence 2016 London Cast Recording, First Night Records ✭✭✭✭
Live theatre lovers are probably going to hate me for this one, but I have to say that I actually enjoyed the Half A Sixpence recording more than I enjoyed the show - but not by much!

REVIEW: Half A Sixpence, Noel Coward Theatre ✭✭✭✭
All in all, this collaboration between the Chichester Festival Theatre and Cameron Mackintosh is a splendidly handsome revival of a much-loved classic story, offering a fresh look at one of the greatest British musical scores ever written, and incorporating a lot of fine new writing by some of the most experienced creatives in the industry. It's a delight.
