The new musical, directed by Charlotte Westenra at the Southwark Playhouse, is available to stream until 14 March 2021. It’s been an incredibly challenging time for theatre makers and we were disappointed to hear that The Sorcerer’s Apprentice – which we had tickets to review in-person – was cancelled in light of the third lockdown being announced.
With a lot of time and effort having already gone into making the show happen, we were delighted to learn that The Southwark Playhouse were planning to film a performance of the musical on their stage for audiences to stream from their homes.
While we admire the determination that has gone into making this happen, it sadly doesn’t translate all that well to the small screen.
