Liz Hoggard columnist and arts interviewer for the Observer, Telegraph, Times, Radio Times and Evening Standard

Matthew Freeman – Musical Supervisor, Rat Pack Live From Las Vegas

“Captures the true spirit of Soho, who’ve been the beating heart of Soho since the 18th Century. Captivating and Riveting”
