VareKai - this show should go on and on!

Advantages: Exciting, unusual, family show
Disadvantages: None

Varekai is another superb Cirque Du Soleil masterpiece. I took my family to this show in the Royal Albert Hall (Grandparents, Parents and kids aged 12 and 8) and they all thoroughly enjoyed the show. The show runs in London until 10th February so book now if you want to see something quite different but spectacular. For people who have never been to one of Cirque's performances it is difficult to describe so here goes! Varekai is a beautiful combination ...
...Think of it as a very modern day circus style show with amazingly talented performers in breathtaking costumes with a specific theme throughout. The set design is fantastic and based on the inside of a forest. The forest is made up of vertical bamboo sticks which soar into the Royal Albert's dome. The stage comes right out into the middle of the Hall and the view from the stalls is excellent. Through the show two singers gently support each scene ...

Raise the titanic soundtrack

Advantages: It lets you give your own interpretation to the music
Disadvantages: Sometimes it is better to see the picture first

Music is the eyes of the soul. John Barry paints scene by scene pictures for you in which you can imagine the huge liner itself. Certain instruments indicate happiness or sadness while others indicate diaster, trauma, the world in which the crew and passengers have to cope. You are brought into a world through musical introductions to the main story by the light and shade of the orchestra. It is up to you to decide your emotions regarding this ...

High Fives all round!

Advantages: good mix, energetic, fun
Disadvantages: /

When I was a bit younger, I used to watch Australian kids show Hi 5 on Milkshake every morning religiously before school. It is a programme aimed at pre-school and primary school children, teaching them various things through the methods of song and dance. Naturally, there are five presenters, all of which are Australian. Okay so the education side is a bit young fo rme, but I do find the music very entertaining on the show! Now I do not have the ...
...I did buy one of their several albums. This one was Hi 5 Hits. This album is very attractive, a very colourful cover with little cartoon images of the band: Nathan Foley, Charley Delaney, Tim Harding, Kellie Crawford (then Hoggart), and Kathleen de Leon. It is very bright and draws your attention in for sure! Looking on the back I noticed there were a total of twenty one songs. I will let you discover the wonders of them all yourself, but to give ...

How High would this reach?

Advantages: good songs, good price
Disadvantages: generally appeals only to HSM fans

...while to catch on to High School Musical. In fact, I ended up seeing High School Musical 3 before I saw the first two! Though I have now caught myself up and along with that I am becoming more familiar with the songs. In an attempt to fully connect with the music, I found myself borrowing the CDs from a friend. One of which was of course the High School Musical 2 CD soundtrack. The album can be recognized by its aqua blue cover. On the front, 'High ...
...you are a fan of High School Musical, but I will admit that it is not one I would rush out and buy myself. It is a good CD to listen to if you were given it as a gift or, in my case, if you borrow it from a friend. Though I feel you should only spend money on it if you know you are going to like it and you do like High School Musical! It is great to listen to, generally quite upbeat, and well worth giving it a go! Amy 2009 Track listing can be found ...

A Beautiful but Mysterious Story, Definitely Maybe...

Advantages: Beautifully written, excellent acting
Disadvantages: I wish there was a part2 haha.

Definitely Maybe is one of the movies that I had fun watching. I never got bored for even a second between the movie and I each and every moment I was wondering what will happen next.

Once after coming back from school Maya started questioning and asking him about ...

Maya agrees and Will starts telling her the story. Maya gets confused as she is left guessing who's going to be her actual mom.
