Time for another #PalladiumPicks and this week it's a song from the longest running musical in the West End, LES MISERABLES. Jeremy Secomb popped by the London Palladium for a very intense rendition of "Stars" sung by the character Javert. We reckon those sideburns deserve an acting credit of their own...

Young Frankenstein was announced as the winners of the fourth annual right royal West End Bake Off in aid of Acting for Others – and a whopping £9.5k was raised. So which show’s cake was the Hamilton cast tucking into and who rustled up the brain-shaped creation that took the fancy of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child? Read on to find out more...

"More often than not, I tend to go to the theatre by myself. While it took a bit of getting used to at first, I am now perfectly happy rocking up solo for some theatre magic!" Sometimes it’s a buy-now-or-never ticket decision; sometimes it’s a weeknight; sometimes folks just aren’t free; sometimes you’re not sure who to invite ... learn to love yourself and go ON YOUR OWN! Here are some of our tips for heading to the theatre solo style!

There are changes in the roll call at Les Misérables from 11 June 2018 as the musical enjoys its 33rd record-breaking year. So who is joining Dean and Bradley?

Wonderful West End actor and all-round superstar StageFave Ramin Karimloo is well known for his onstage roles in massive shows like LES MISERABLES and PHANTOM OF THE OPERA but his recording career is similarly awesome. His latest release is "From Now On" from the smash-hit film The Greatest Showman. Watch the video here...

On 27 March, the stagey community celebrated World Theatre Day 2018! Tonnes of fans and #StageFaves alike shared their photos, experiences and videos all about their love for theatre!

When young people come together to create a musical it's amazing in itself, but the talent in the room here with the "Spirit Young Performers Company" is something else! What a talented bunch of young performers, watch out Les Mis, They're coming for you!

Most people tend to focus on the hero of a story, or the major love interest that propels much of the action of a Musical along. But we reckon the villains are often the most interesting part of a show (after all, that's literally what WICKED is entirely based upon!) so we decided to share this collection of the top songs from Musical Theatre Villains.

Last year, Lucie Jones flew the flag for Theatreland and the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest. Fellow #StageFave Liam Tamne is down to the final six to represent us in Lisbon this May with his song "Astronaut". TV audiences decide on Wednesday night (7 February 2018) whether or not he has lift-off. Louisa May talked to him about his extraordinary trajectory so far...

WICKED stars Oliver Savile and Jodie Steele join a host of West End favourites who appear on a new EP of musical theatre ballads by songwriter Oliver Boito called "Notes Of Love".

Hayden Tee is probably best known to theatregoers from LES MISERABLES, in which he has starred as Javert in the West End and on Broadway. What you might not know is that he's a seasoned make-up artist with years of experience all over the world. Last year he released a cover of '7 years' by Danish soul-pop band Lukas Graham, and in the video, he uses his make-up mastery to transform into a 60-year-old over the course of the song...

Children in Need is always a magical night and 2017 was no exception. This year, the cast of Eastenders went big with this spectaular mashup of musical theatre faves set in and around Albert Square.
