Gifted for review. When I heard that Tall Stories were going to be performing The Snow Dragon at Lakeside Arts I knew that going to see the performance was going to feature on our Christmas activity list. We enjoy the theatre at anytime of year, but we go a little more often over autumn and…
Gifted for review. Live entertainment in all its guises is something I’m really passionate about sharing with Indie and Brook. I also think going to see a show or performance works really well at this time of year. We naturally gravitate towards more indoor activities especially given how chilly it’s been in Nottingham recently. The…
Hello Friends! Did you enjoy my Disney Princess Sing and Sparkle Ariel Doll Review yesterday? Well, I’ve got even more things Disney to share today. If you follow me on Instagram you might have spotted that we went to the latest Disney on Ice show to arrive at the Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham. I shared a lot on Instagram…
I’ve been keeping a little secret from Indie and Brook. Very soon they are going to see Disney On Ice presents Dream Big at Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena and I know it will be such a super surprise for them. I love taking them to live shows as it helps to bring their favourite characters to life and…
You guys already know that we love live shows. It will come as no surprise then that when I was asked if I’d like to see OVO Cirque du Soleil in Nottingham that I was quick to take them up on the offer. I’ve seen Cirque du Soleil at the Nottingham arena before but the…
CHAMÄLEON Theatre There is something incredibly special about walking into this Berlin theatre. The CHAMÄLEON is a unique venue to say that it plays host to some of the most talented circus performers from around the world. If you are expecting a large arena, you really need to think again as this theatre in Berlin is…
When we heard that Bing Live was going to be coming to the Royal Concert Hall in Nottingham I knew I wanted to take the girls for a holiday treat. They are both huge fans of Bing Bunny and his friends. They really enjoy their real life adventures so I knew they would love going…
Over recent years, going to the theatre has become more and more accessible to children. I love taking the girls to see a show, and they love watching stories and characters be brought to life in front of their very eyes. We never fail to have a good time when we go to the theatre…
I have wanted to know what a show like Cirque Du Soleil is like for a long time, so when I got the chance to go down to the opening night of their latest show, Varekai at Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena I literally jumped at the chance. If I could sum up my night in one…
We love to take the children to the theatre, and we are especially fond of going to the Djanogly Theatre at Nottingham Lakeside Arts. We have enjoyed some lovely performances with the children over the years and this Christmas was no exception. We were invited to see Beasty Baby, a collaborative family performance between The University of…
I don’t know how I did it, but I managed to keep it a secret from the girls that they were going to be seeing Frozen Disney On Ice at the Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham. Bless them, it didn’t even dawn on them what was happening when I said they could both wear a Frozen…
How excited are we that the number 1 animated movie of all time is finally making an appearance here in Nottingham at the Motorpoint Arena? Well, to say we are very excited to see Disney On Ice presents Frozen is quite an understatement. My daughters are literally going to pop when they see their favourite…
My husband and I were lucky enough to be invited to the opening night of the UK tour of Marvel Universe LIVE! and what a night it was. There was much debate in our house about who was going to be going, but my husband was clear that he was at the top of the…
Disney On Ice is a show I have wanted to see ever since I had children, possibly even before. Before the girls were born it’s something that just didn’t happen. My son liked Disney of course, but never asked to go to Disney On Ice. He had other ideas about how he wanted to spend…
Sid’s Show came to Derby’s Guildhall Theatre for half term and the girls and I were lucky enough to be invited along. We are all huge fans of Sid Sloane in the CBeebies show Let’s Play and couldn’t wait to pop along and see him live on stage. It was lovely to have a fun…
The Elves and the Shoemaker was one of my favourite fairy tales when I was a child. I remember having the book and it was a story I was really fond of. I was really exited when I found out that the story was coming to life at Lakeside Arts, and was really keen to…
