As part of their UK and Ireland tour, London Classic Theatre presented Noël Coward’s Private Lives at Crewe Lyceum this week.

I’ll admit that I’ve seen a few Disney films in my time.
Mostly from babysitting younger members of the family, which also means I’m familiar with a lot the songs.
Frank Spencer is a unique character in British comedy.
His calamitous capers, child-like innocence and unswerving loyalty to exasperated wife Betty endears him to all.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
