Review in The Times

We're really pleased with this morning's review in The Times!


“…And in this revue they (the songs) often prove not just durable but delectable.”

“…the evening offers its selection like a string of pearls…the overall effect is smooth, elegant entertainment.”

“Shrubsole’s piano playing and musical direction are both impeccable and witty, his control of the four-strong band precise yet loose-limbed, and the singers – Maria Friedman, Graham Bickley, Mary Carewe and Tim Howar alongside Green – deliver renditions as intelligent and accomplished as you would expect from a crew of such established talent.”

“Carewe gives a powerful torch-song version of It Never Entered My Mind.”

“Fans will come for the pleasures of the familiar, and won’t be disappointed: but it’s the darker, more unexpected moments that make it memorable.”
