Scottish Opera: Hansel and Gretel
Date Location
Humperdinck's Hansel and Gretel is an unlikely but highly effective synthesis of Wagnerian techniques with folk-inspired tunes; a darkly funny folktale that has never been out of the repertoire since Richard Strauss conducted the premiere back in 1893. This production features Estonian mezzo Kai Rüütel as Hansel, Irish soprano Ailish Tynan as Gretel and Leah-Marian Jones as the Witch.

The Muppets
Date Location
(3 stars) When Muppet fans Gary (Segel), his girlfriend Mary (Adams) and brother Walter (a puppet) learn that oil millionaire Tex Richman (Cooper) plans to demolish the Muppet theatre, it's time to reunite the original cast. If the plot could be fresher, the well-chosen guest stars, self-referential humour and old-school bonhomie should raise a smile.

The Woman in Black
Date Location
(2 stars) A young lawyer (Radcliffe) arrives at a remote English village to conclude the estate of a dead woman; cue lots of shoogly windows, creaky floorboards and slamming doors. Despite smart production choices of screenwriter and director, and a commendable performance by Radcliffe, the movie is dull, old-fashioned and decidedly short on terror.
