Avoid that dinner disaster and log onto MenuPages.ie today lution Heavy-handed: Some of the dishes were saltier than a Tommy Tiernan punchline Staying In... What are you listening to? In Rainbows by Radiohead. I love this album it took me a few listens but now Im hooked. When I was performing in Edinburgh in August I used it as my get-ready music. But now that Ive returned home Im listening to my old reliable: Bob Dylans Blood On The Tracks. What are you reading? Nick Caves The Death Of Bunny Monroe. I was lucky to be invited to his private reading in London and got a lovely signing. It was great as he explained the ideas behind the book and how he wrote it on tour in six weeks full of Caves darkness and black humour. The cover shows a big soft bunny so the book has pride of place on a rocking chair between my cuddly toys. What are you watching? Not much to be honest! When I do, I like to watch Mad Men and catch the odd film. Im not sure why I have turned my back on TV at the moment. It might be because of the incessant touring over the last six months I just want a bit of silence. Going Out... Where are you eating? In Dublin, I like to go to Steps Of Rome or Dunne & Crescenzi. I like their simple Italian dishes, antipasto or a wee prosecco. Where do you go out? At the moment, sadly, nowhere as my social life is being eaten up by performing in the evenings. Recently while I was in London, it was in the Soho District either at Bar Italia, Soho House or the Groucho Club. In Dublin, The Stags Head and The Long Hall are favourites. I loved playing pool at the Camden Palace but they recently turned it into a nightclub. Im devastated.

Could the issue be more physical in nature? Like foot-in-mouth disease? This might explain a penchant for outlandish, unfiltered quotes that would cause most stars PRs to vomit or suffer uncontrollable diarrhoea the avoidance of which, along with tripping, are among Megans stated objectives whenever shes on stage according to an interview in Wonderland magazine. Suggesting shed really like to let rip on the topic of Michael Bay, her director on the latest Transformers flick, she reins her comments way in, comparing him to nobody more frightful than Napoleon a baldy megalomaniac midget with delusions of grandeur, then? or that perennially fluffy kitten, Hitler a description unlikely to commend Bay to Hollywoods Jewish grandees. Hes a nightmare to work for, she says. Just as well the batty brunette wont have to in future. Keith Barker-Main Hated Catherine Zeta-Jones smug Ive-hoofed-my- way-to-the-top-too! silver screen turn as desperately ambitious Velma Kelly? Then youll love this stage production and its surprisingly sympathetic characters. Luminous Twinnie-Lee Moore slips into murderess Kellys rhinestone heels for this touring production, while EastEnders Emma Honey Mitchell Barton pitch-perfectly plays her nemesis and newbie death-row inmate, Roxie Hart. Hart shoots her lover in a crime of passion and convinces her dead-beat husband (superb Adam Stafford) that it was self-defence cue super-slick showstopper We Both Reached For The Gun in which Roxie becomes a ventriloquists dummy on the knee of her debonair lawyer Billy Flynn (lovely Gary Wilmot, dusting off his impressionist skills). Infamous reputation restored, the wannabe vaudeville star becomes an overnight success, her celebrity eclipsing that of established stage siren Velma that is, until the next murderess hits the headlines and steals her thunder. Still sexy at 13 years old, this multiple Tony and Olivier Award-winning show exuberantly evokes the Windy Citys jazz era more through trumpet-muffler excess than costumes and hairstyles, which straddle the ages. Playing not in the pit but on an on-stage bandstand, the musicians interact with the actors while the scantily-clad chorus are a Karma Sutra of heaving limbs. This is a production that had the audience eating out of its jazz hands. Lucy White Until Sat, Gaiety Theatre, South King Street D2, times vary, 25 to 60.
