Imelda Staunton and Bessie Carter (from Bridgerton) take to the stage together in George Bernard Shaw's play Mrs Warren's Profession? How do mother and daughter fare playing mother and daughter? Nick Curtis, Nancy Durrant and Tim Bano review the production at the Garrick Theatre. Plus they head to the Royal Court to see After the Act, a musical about Section 28 which banned the 'promotion of homosexuality' in schools and local authorities. And the lovely John O'Farrell has a chat with Nick about his huge musical successes including Mrs Doubtfire which has just closed, the Live Aid musical Just For One Day which is about to open, and Something Rotten which will finally have its UK premiere next year.
