Has anyone seen a Flea in her Ear? The Telegraph review is pretty uncomplimentary! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/thea ... eview.html

No, but if you look at Whatsonstage, you can search for their own professional critic's review plus those of members; there's also a thread for it under "plays" on the discussion board, so if you have time to read all this, you should get a balanced view.

I saw A Flea In Her Ear and am much more in agreement with the Guardian's review:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/2010/de ... NTCMP=SRCH

If you like farces which are way over the top, with loads of people running round, in and out of doors, in various states of undress, this is the show for you!

The timing was spot on, there were loads of different accents and you couldn't fault anyone in the large cast.
Preferred Cinemas :
Richmond, Kingston, West End, Wimbledon, Shepherds Bush, Clapham, Westfield, Fulham

Really hope showfilmfirst give away tickets for the Taro Hakase concerts at Cadogan Hall on Sunday and Monday. Not for me but for my parents. I got them tickets for the last couple of concerts he did there and they loved it.

EDIT: Managed to get a pair for Monday night.

I've Just got back from GMania (Manchester), and all I can say is what a load of RUBBISH!!!!!

I can't believe that the box office is aloud to sell tickets Haha it's was so bad the singers clothes were all b*ght from Primark, some of them would forget the dance routines, not loud enough and to top it off it was miming all the way!! O well thank god they were free! 

Does anyone else agree that G-mania was rubbish? I have tickets but im not sure if I'm willing to make the very long journey to get there if i will be disappointed by the performance.

Review from their Newcastle show 2 weeks ago was quite positive

http://www.glasswerk.co.uk/blog/nationa ... +2011#3118

However, ticket sales at Manchester haven't gone well, original pricing £22 - £26 per ticket, Palace theatre offering them for £10 each for tonights show.

It's not that long ago that the real Glee cast were at the M.E.N arena so maybe that has affected ticket sales along with the price.

I'm taking 2 very excited 12 year old girls along tonight, so I daren't back out now!

Thanks, I think I'll wait to hear your review before I make the effort of travelling to see this show. I hope you all enjoy it though.
