Christina Bianco Review : Sherman Theatre Cardiff



The incredibly talented singer, actress & impressionist Christina Bianco, brought her 'Me myself and everyone else' tour to the Sherman Cymru theatre, and we were lucky enough to be there! Not only that, but we had the pleasure of meeting the lady herself as Nathan presented her with a portrait made with pizza! After greeting with a big hug, the pizza was unveiled Her reaction was priceless!

Christina - WHAT IN THE WORLD! You've combined my two favourite things, Italian food and ME!

Nathan - wow thank you I'm so pleased you like it!

Christina - is it really to tomato purée?

Nathan - Yep all edible!

Christina - what I really love also is the composition of the pepperoni and the veg around the edges it's adds so much depth!  I draw and doodle too but nothing like this, what an honour!

*lots of photos taken*

Wayne - So Christina, have you been about in Cardiff?

Christina - Yes oh my god you have such a beautiful city! I wanted to go to be bay but didn't have time, that's a good excuse to come back! I did get to go to the castle and visit some Sherlock sites! So amazing!

Wayne - and you had the weather too, that's rare!

Christina - Yes but I'm sure it's still beautiful anyway! I live it here you're all so friendly! I can't wait for the show to begin!!

Wayne - Well neither can we, best of luck!!

The show from start to finish was absolutely outstanding. Having seen some performances on her viral YouTube videos we knew a little bit about what to expect but had no idea it would be so hilarious all the way through! Her own singing voice could easily stand it's own in any West End production (we later found out her dream role would be Elphaba in Wicked) and her celebrity impressions ranging from icons like Streisand and Garland, to modern stars like Ariana Grande and Paloma Faith were spot on!
Self admittedly her best and favourite is Celine Dion - it's unmistakeable accurate and spookily like she's in the room singing to you! Other favourites that got the crowd on their feet were of course Dame Shirley Bassey and TV sketch impressions of iconic characters from Ab Fab, Sex and the city, Friends & Will & Grace!

Christina Bianco is without a shadow of a doubt a force to be reckoned with and we predict this is just the very start of a very long career owning the stage!

Many Man

Many Man Written & Performed by Tobias Weatherburn  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tobias Weatherburn triumphs in Spilt Milks production of Many Man, taking us on a rollercoaster of emotions as he explores the multiple personalities of a man searching for happiness by creating a new persona each time life fails him. Many Man is a journey of a man searching for the better version of himself and ultimately wanting just to be the man he was born to be. From the start we thought this one man show would be something of a comedy stand up. There was much laughter as Weatherburn described his characters life and got all philosophical on life in general and each time the character transforms himself into a completely different persona it's done so cleverly and with lots of humour. It's not until each persona fails and breaks down that we see the dark and tormented side to his complex character.  Weatherburn delivers impeccable comic timing and nails a number of accents which keep flipping ...

Strike A Pose : Interview With Carlton Wilborn

Back in 1990 Madonna took stardom to dizzy heights no star had experienced before. She had a massive number one hit on her hands (Vogue), was in a hit film (Dick Tracy) and embarked on a World Tour that would have the whole world talking! The Blond Ambition Tour broke boundaries and the box office, it was the hottest ticket of the year. And if you wasn’t lucky enough to get a ticket, the tour was made into a rockumentary which featured Madonna on stage, on the road and in bed with Madonna. The film (Truth or Dare/In Bed With Madonna) focused on the relationships the superstar had with those closest to her especially the seven male dancers who featured heavily in the film. Truth or Dare has become something of a classic, probably the first venture into reality TV. The dancers that appeared in it became stars in their own right and attracted a fan base of their own. Now twenty five years later ‘Strike a Pose’ a feature documentary from Ester Gould and Reijer Zwaan, catch...
