< Back The Jungle Book ˂ Previous Production Next Production ˃ to 18 May 2022 The Jungle Book An Easter half term Jungle Adventure for all the Family awaits at Altrincham Garrick Playhouse! Saved from the jaws of Shere Khan the tiger, Mowgli must learn the Laws of the Jungle from Baloo the bear and Bagheera the panther to survive. A brave little man cub grows into a confident and care-free young boy, but danger is never far away and Shere Khan is hungry for revenge. As Mowgli faces each peril and pitfall, he must decide whether he belongs in the world of men or with the animal kingdom. Stuart Paterson reimagines Kipling's much-loved stories for a new generation in a vibrant, colourful family adventure that's full of surprises. This adaptation was first staged by Birmingham Stage Company in 2004. Age Guidance: 5+ REVIEW - Rick Bowen at Stagestruck ROS Greenwood, take a bow. Not only has she directed what is sure to be an Easter hit for all the family at the Garrick, she’s designed an appealing set, complete with overhanging flora and fauna, that provides the perfect backdrop for Kipling’s timeless and heart warming children’s classic. I needed little persuading to swap soggy south Trafford for a jungle setting, warm enough for Mowgli the man cub to scamper around the stage minus his top as I sat in the auditorium, next to my overcoat. Myles Ryan is an instantly likeable, wholesome and heroic Mowgli and the actor makes us care that he doesn’t end up being gobbled up by Shere Khan, the tyrant tiger, played by Peter Birch. All your favourite characters are here in a two hour fun filled show that is a great way to introduce kids to the wonders of the theatre and reminds both them and their parents that entertainment doesn’t have to be screen shaped. Mathew Spilsbury is very watchable as Baloo the bear and I laughed when he scooped up Mowgli in one of his huge bear hugs. Ellidh Pollard fascinated the little ones in the audience as Kaa the snake and there were many volunteers when Kaa threatened to have them for dinner. “Eat me, eat me,” shouted one girl near the front of the stage. While there’s a smattering of audience participation in this Garrick show it is kept to a minimum and unlike in panto there aren’t the jokes that make you cringe. Or maybe, that’s just me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Car Parking. Cosy Bar.

< Back The History Boys ˂ Previous Production Next Production ˃ to 8 February 2014 The History Boys is a brilliant, beguiling and extraordinarily entertaining comedy. Set in the mid 1980's it follows a group of six-formers at a Northern Grammar School as they prepare to take the Oxbridge exam. The story illustrates the humour and vulnerability of teenagers on their way to adulthood.

I find myself drawn to them and I want to be just like them. So it is with Hector, the avuncular schoolmaster in The History Boys. What a pity then, he has to spoil it all by taking the concept of hands on teaching one step too far. This endearing and enigmatic character has to be one of Alan Bennett?s most captivating creations and Nick Sample gives a performance to remember in Altrincham Garrick?s outstanding production of a theatrical masterpiece. Mark Dawson as his colleague Irwin is the chalk to Hector's cheese, a young teacher who is happy to turn out academic clones to keep the school's head smiling. That contradiction forms the premise of this remarkable piece of writing - should education be about passing exams or should it produce individuals who can think for themselves and bring something different to society? That may sound rather dry, but Bennett handles it with his trademark wit and eloquence. In fact, some of the lines in this play are verbal gold, so brilliant they make you shudder. While the performances of Sample and Dawson are worth the ticket money on their own, the young actors who play their pupils more than contribute to a very special evening in the theatre. What a pity I don?t have the space to name them all. Magnificent Star Rating ★★★★★

< Back Dick Barton - Special Agent ˂ Previous Production Next Production ˃ to 8 February 2014 Gabardine collar up, trilby at rakish angle, intrepid sleuth Dick Barton faces arch enemies Baron Scarheart and Marta Heartburn in a series of exotic, action-packed adventures, aiming to rid the world of evil in the name of decency and patriotism. Based on the 1940's BBC radio serial this critically acclaimed and hugely successful play is 'Deliriously funny' poking fun at English hearts-of-oak heroics with all the attendant class distinctions and tender regard for the little woman. It walks a very fine line between homage and camp spoof. The result is something that captures all the patriotic fervour of Hunhating post-war Britain even as it sends it up rotten.

It's a sort of musical adult pantomime with some Carry On style jokes thrown in. When I say 'adult' I don't mean seedy and you could take granny to see this gloriously daft, cartoonish caper. Being a child of the 60's the archetypal English hero who inspired the piece means nothing to me, but I could really appreciate what is being sent up here. The sort of Englishman who's retains a stiff upper lip in a crisis, uses phrases like 'Johnny foreigner' and drinks tea from bone china cups. Spoofs can get on your nerves but this Altrincham Garrick production, expertly directed by Charlie Cook, is perfectly pitched, with a strong, animated and energetic cast effortlessly bringing their characters to life and making the most of the fun dialogue. Laura Chandler plays - among other roles - Martha Heartburn, henchwoman of Barton's arch enemy, Baron Scarheart. For me, this is Laura?s finest performance on this stage to date and her late dad Terry, a stalwart of this theatre, would have been proud of her. Adam Whittle is also very impressive as Barton and his cockney sidekick, Snowy. Dick Barton - Special Agent simply sets out to entertain and it's definitely a case of mission accomplished in a production that's a real antidote to the February gloom. Enjoy. Star Rating ★★★★
