I really enjoyed coming along to the phoenix to see Desert Island Flicks. Everyone was so welcoming and had time to talk to me. The show had people calling out in their seats, singing along to their favourite film soundtracks and was an all-round fun evening – with dance! It was fascinating to hear from the cast about how the show was created and what their ambitions were. I can’t wait to come back and see what the phoenix has next.
