Kitchen W8 is a bargain for this area, if such sophistication is what you crave
Kitchen W8
Too long and drawn out but very entertaining with excellent special effects
This is a peculiar play and does not work for me. Some of it is very funny but there are real flaws
Alex has a strong powerful voice and was faultless, she is far better now than she was on the X-Factor

David Lean’s 1948 adaptation, written by Eric Ambler, of the novel by HG Wells has often been dismissed as one of his lesser efforts, but it was highly praised when revived in a new print at Cannes this year.
Justly so, since this story of a woman (Ann Todd, then Lean’s wife) who has to decide whether to remain with a boring but fond husband (Claude Rains) or cavort with her sexy old flame (Trevor Howard) remains a subtle exposition of the middle-class mores of the time. Beautifully structured by Lean throughout, it is set in Switzerland and finely shot by Guy Green.
