We’re off to a late start this week, but here’s the first half of our reviews at the VAULT Festival this week!

If you’ve ever read a novel by one of the Brontës, or know anything about Gothic horror tropes, We Are Brontë will almost … Continue reading [Review] VAULT Festival 2017: Haunted Houses and Fun Funerals (3 & 4/2/17)

Tonight at the VAULT Festival, we caught two one man shows: James Rowland’s romcom turned life lesson A Hundred Different Words For Love and Kane Power’s musical exploration of his mother’s bipolar disorder.

A Hundred Different Words For Love by James Rowland … Continue reading [Review] VAULT Festival 2017: One Man Shows About Love and Other Diseases (2/2/17)
