Misplaced Theatre is one of my favourite theatre companies. They've staged some cracking productions in Bristol. This month they are bringing Joanna Murray-Smith’s Switzerland to Alma Tavern Theatre and The Mission Theatre Bath: backstagebristol.com/misplaced-th...

This is really heartening to see. BAOS have included a BSL interpreted performance to their run of The Hunchback of Notre Dame next month. It's great seeing more accessibility in our amateur theatre groups. I say amateur but they are always fantastic: backstagebristol.com/baos-include...

The Doctor Who Proms is going to be on TV on Christmas Eve. It features footage filmed in Bristol. I think it's one of the most incredible live music events I've ever been to. Hope they keep Catherine Tate's bloopers in because she was so funny
