Pedro and the Captain, The Vaults – Review
Pros: This is a hard-hitting thought-provoking piece, with splashes of dark humour. Cons: This is not for the faint-hearted.

Pros: The show’s imagination, creativity and atmosphere are outstanding examples of how to bring a classic to life. Cons: Some may find the flashing lights, loud metal music and smoke a bit much.
