How refreshing to have a Disney film that doesn't end with a marriage! There is much to entertain and please adults in this show but your six year olds may need the stamina for a two and a half hour spectacle with brilliant singing and performances. However many will be pleased that the scary Marshmallow monster does not figure in the UK musical. Casting Samantha Barks and Stephanie McKeon with their acting ability and contrasting singing voices is a master stroke.

Hotly anticipated is the transfer to London of the Broadway hit musical, The Book of Mormon. After Jerry Springer, the Opera raised Christian protest for both the BBC and the provincial theatres the tour was due to go to, it is refreshing to see the Mormon Church has taken out several full page advertisements in the theatre programme. Well done Mormons! What a PR coup and a very intelligent reaction to what could have been damaging! We had heard that Trey Parker and Matt Stone's musical was blisteringly funny but very naughty as well.
