Reasons To Have Family Counselling
People are capable of independent living, but it’s not natural for them to lead it that way. So we unite with others and make families. It’s the most crucial relationship that people have with each other. These groups of people connected by blood have become the backbone of every modern society. Every family has certain conflicts. A group of different characters, attitudes, and behaviours may function, but disputes are almost inevitable. Sometimes, these conflicts are desirable and sometimes not. When it comes to this second situation, people often need the help of reputable counsellors. They will understand and identify the needs of all members and help them solve problems. Some…

The Rats At The Grange Playhouse
Most people know that Agatha Christie wrote a number of plays, Murder on the Nile and Witness for the Prosecution being amongst the most famous. But Agatha also wrote many other lesser known vehicles including a twisty, nasty, one act play called The Rats. This is the play that the Grange Players of Walsall submitted to the recent AETF Awards, where it was awarded the best one-act play in Birmingham! They are now bringing the show to The Grange Stage for two nights only and I was able to attend the very first show. (incidentally my first visit to The Grange Playhouse, but it won’t be my last.) I was…

Essential Items You Need In Your Capsule Wardrobe
Creating a capsule wardrobe can be tricky if you’re not sure where to start. A capsule wardrobe is supposed to include clothes and accessories that you can use to create a broad range of looks.

But regardless of how full your wardrobe is, these are…

Little Women At The Rep
I was eleven when I first read Louisa May Alcott’s ‘Little Women’ and it remains one of my favourite books. The story of the four, very difficult March sisters, set against the backdrop of the American Civil War, is a classic, one that has been much filmed. Now, it has been adapted as a play by Anne-Marie Casey, and this spirited production, which opened at the Birmingham Rep last night, is going to win hearts all over again. The story is slight, four young sisters, all very different, heading towards womanhood and their own hopes and dreams. Beautiful oldest sister Meg wants a husband and family, but knows the family…
