Admire the work of one of the most talented 16th century artists at the Barocci Exhibition London. Titled Brilliance and Grace, this fantastic exhibition showcases a range of masterpieces that reflect the gentle side of the human form, as painted by this Italian genius. Federico Barocci Born in 1535, Federico Barocci was a Renaissance artist whose influential work is characterised by his interesting use of vivid colours and his often religious subject matter. The Barocci Exhibition London has on display 16 of his most significant devotional paintings, such as The Last Supper in which we see Jesus surrounded by his apostles with angels flying overhead. Artistic character The Barocci Exhibition London will not only be displaying the artist’s classic paintings, but it will also be exhibiting five of his finest portraits depicted alongside their preliminary sketches. Visitors to the exhibition will realise that much of Barocci’s work has been inspired by people and animals, and in many of his paintings you can see how he has brought warmth to these characters through his use of soft lighting and colour. Never before seen The Barocci Exhibition London is showcasing works that have never been seen outside of Italy, making this gallery of artwork a real treat for art fans. So why not let the work of this Italian master capture your imagination and visit this unique exhibition. more

Get your Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Tickets now to see the amazing live action rendition of Roald Dahl's famous children's story. London sees this new musical open this summer and it promises to be among the must-see performances of the year. Roald Dahl classic Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was written in 1964 and tells the story of a young boy named Charlie, who lives in extreme poverty. After winning a golden ticket, he and his grandfather embark on a magical journey with four spoilt kids through the magical chocolate factory of Willy Wonka. The story has inspired many adaptations, including two feature films, and if you manage to get Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Tickets for the London musical, you will get to see a brand new adaptation that is much closer to the book and unlike the previous movie versions. Visually spectacular Those lucky enough to get Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Tickets will get to see the crazy world of the chocolate factory unfold before them with stunning set designs that hope to immerse you in this magical realm. The music has been written by Marc Shaiman and Scott Whittman, best known for their work in the musical Hairspray, so you can expect to hear some memorable songs that you'll be humming all the way home. Family fun The musical is directed by Academy award winner Sam Mendes, whose most recent acclaim is as the director of the latest James Bond film, Skyfall, so audiences can feel rest assured that Roald Dahl's story is in safe hands. This production is one both adults and children can enjoy, so why not pick up some Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Tickets for the family and be delighted by this surreal journey guided by Oompa-Loompas and Willy Wonka himself. more
