Cured really is a theatre production like no other, and it’s on right now at Liverpool’s Royal Court! 🎭

This incredible show will leave you on the edge of your seat, and as Laurence Clark says, if you anticipate what’s about to happen next, then he hasn’t done his job as a writer correctly.

It’s on this weekend and all of next week, so be quick and go see it before it’s gone!

Cured is produced by Liverpool’s Royal Court in association with Birds of Paradise Theatre Company.

Say hello to ReNew, the newest store in Liverpool’s Metquarter, specialising in restoring old and tired furniture! 🛋️😍

Not just that, but it also sells its own beautifully transformed chests, chairs, cabinets, mirrors and more. The team will even collect it from you and, when it’s ready, drop it back off FOR FREE!

ReNew opened in Metquarter in October last year, and since then it’s been a go-to for homeowners wanting to try out new trends, revamp their favourite spaces, and save fabulous furniture that’s just a bit tired from the skip.

We speak to owner Peter to find out more about the business! 👀

Liverpool is quickly becoming one of the safest places in the UK to go on a night out thanks to the Night Time Safety Charter 🍸

This programme is vital in ensuring our city’s venues & staff have the relevant training, covering everything from how to identify fake ID’s, to knowing when to intervene if a problem arises.

Gemma has been out chatting to some of the key players in this initiative to hear more. 👀

What happens when you let John May loose with the lions Knowlsey Safari? There’s only one way to find out! 🦁🤣

We threw John in at the deep end and sent him over to complete the longest safari drive in the UK, right here on our doorstep in Knowsley!

Driving around in the car isn’t the only way to get up, close & personal with the animals, you can also take a walk on the wild side on the amazing foot safari!

And this week, Knowsley Safari is hosting a magical storybook adventure with Once Upon A Time, which will transform the foot safari into a world of mythical creatures, storytelling and wonder! 🤩
