The Wycombe Swan and Town Hall are great venues for all different types of shows. They have…read moremusicals, plays, comedy acts and a pantomime every year. The Hellfire comedy club held at the Town Hall is especially good. At only £9 for 3 comedians it is excellent value and the food and drink on sale is also very reasonable. The ticket prices are generally very good and whilst the booking fees are relatively low you can avoid them by going to the box office and buying your tickets there. They are open 6 days a week until 8pm so it's quite easy to find a convenient time to drop in.

My name's Yee Gan and I'm a Strictly Come Dancing fan. So, I was very happy to receive tickets to…read moreMidnight Tango for Christmas from my friend who I go dancing with Midnight Tango is the dance show headlined by 2 of Strictly's stars, Vincent Simone and Flavia Cacace. Set in a dusky South American bar, the production showcases this couple's signature Argentinian tango though there were interesting variations set to samba, waltz, rumba and cha cha cha rhythms Supported by an able dance troupe, there were several great ensemble numbers but the best dances came with Vincent and Flavia's couple spots, epitomised by the grand Argentine tango finale and their rumba-esque love dance in the second half. Their years together as a dance partnership is evident from the chemistry and some of the intricate intertwining legwork was amazing At the heart of the story was a touching love story between the grouchy barman and his long-suffering wife who both finally overcame their years of 'familiarity breeds contempt' marriage to re-discover their love through dance. They also shared the show's best comic moments and as we're constantly reminded in Strictly, a good dance should tell a story and the entire story of the show is conveyed without any dialogue What made the show were the rhythms and tunes produced by the live band. Cleverly introduced at the start of the show by adding the instruments one by one, the audience could appreciate the increasing layers of complexity as the violin was joined successively by the accordion, piano, double bass and percussion. Toe tappingly good music aided by the vocal soloist This show will continue on its UK show next week

Neither fancy nor run down, I'd not shy away from another performance at The Oxford Playhouse - and…read moreneither should you - but I'd set my expectations accordingly. Having bought advance tickets to a very good, creative, evening performance (Moby Dick) I was surprised to see how casual the Playhouse's interior looked and felt. It wasn't just the presence of a lot of children in the audience but also the sale of ice cream in the theater at intermission. This is not a theater experience that one should feel the need to dress up for; it's sort of the opposite of that. If ancient yelp reviews are accurate, The Oxford Playhouse is an attractive option for Oxford students. As a visitor to the town, I'd not call this a "must" but after a day of doing "whatever" it offers a comfortable finale.

The main auditorium has seats which stack up, creating a nice large wooden dance floor for the salsa event. I parked at the Bedford Rd car park, which cost £1 for the whole evening if you arrive after 6pm There was a bar selling drinks though it was classy of them to also make jugs of cold tap water available for free. The toilet facilities were good and there was a self serve cloakroom The salsa party night itself was fantastic - 3 levels of classes by Gio and guest teachers, then lots of time to freestyle and practise those moves and the highlight of the evening - a show by Miles Chapman and Lorna Arnold, the UK Junior Latin Dance champions. Just when you think you can dance, it's amazing to see how much higher the standard is for real dancers! Good venue, great evening!

It is quite a small theatre which I think adds to it's charm as you seat fairly close to the stage which is a big advantage when attending with small children or when listening to a speaker. It is situated very centrally in Guildford and is easily accessed by train, bus and car. It also is set right on the River Wey so there are great views too from the bar area!
