Friction Free Shaving Launch at Bar Opus
When it comes to shaving, it seems women are getting a rough deal, and not just due to shaving rash. We tend to pay more for our products, and suffer with inferior bits of pink plastic. And, if we decide that we would like to invest in a better class of razor, like men are able to do, we find that these are just not available for women. Until now that is. Friction Free Shaving is a start up based in my neck of the woods (i.e. Cannock, Staffordshire) that wants to give women the same choice, quality and value as men when it comes to shaving. It offers a…

Breakfast at Tiffany’s at the New Alexandra Theatre
It is an iconic book that became an iconic movie classic. Now ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ has been turned into a play that opened at Birmingham’s New Alexandra Theatre this week, with pop starlet Pixie Lott stepping into the not inconsiderable shoes of Audrey Hepburn to play Holly Golightly. But fans of the Hollywood movie version may be surprised with the differences in the story, and, if you require a pre-requisite Hollywood happy ending, this may not be the show for you. Fred (not his real name but we never actually find out what it is.) is an aspiring, but down on his luck writer, living in an apartment block with…

Janis Joplin festival style
Over the Easter holiday I enjoyed catching up on a bit of television, and one thing that I watched was a docu-film about the legendary Janis Joplin. Called ‘Janis Joplin – Little Girl Blue’, it was a story that told about her life, her work, her problems and showed many of her legendary performances, including ‘Ball and Chain’, ‘Cry Baby’ and ‘Another Piece of My Heart.’ One of the things I noticed whilst watching the film was what incredible style Janis had. This was the late 1960s when hippy chick was all the rage, and with festival fever taking off with Monteray, Woodstock and The Isle of Wight festivals amongst…

End of the Rainbow – Judy’s swansong at the Wolverhampton Grand
If ‘Over the Rainbow’ was Judy Garland’s signiture tune, then ‘End of the Rainbow’ is definitely her swansong. The play, that started a three night run at the Wolverhampton Grand last night, is the story of the screen legend in the months before she died, during a 6 week run at London’s ‘Talk of the Town’. This is Judy destroyed by the alcohol, the pills, the late nights, bad men and heartache, with no will to go on with the show anymore. Set in London in the early months of 1969, the play is a three hander concerning Judy, her fiance Mickey Deans and her erstwhile piano player Anthony Chapman.…
