Fever's Candlelight: Disney Love Songs at Southwark Cathedral in London is an ideal date night idea for the festive season, according to a review by Showbiz Reporter Tiffany Lo. The event, which also runs in Liverpool, Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow, Belfast and Cambridge, features a string quartet performing famous Disney love songs live.
A Cosy Candlelit Atmosphere
The cathedral is entirely lit by candles, creating a cosy autumnal feel while guests relax into the music. The programme includes tracks such as Can You Feel the Love Tonight, A Whole New World and Dos Oruguitas. The setlist is well thought out, covering themes of family love and friendship as well as romance, making it suitable for partners, parents or friends.
Southwark Cathedral, located near Borough Market in London Bridge, is described as a hidden gem. The candlelight setup enhances the ambience of the venue.
Room for Improvement in the Setlist
The review notes that photography and videography are not allowed until the final song, Married Life from the Pixar film Up. The reviewer suggests this slow, melancholy piece was perhaps the wrong choice for the encore, as a more upbeat Disney track would have boosted the mood better. The quartet players are praised as incredibly talented, with gorgeous harmonies, but the reviewer felt the setlist needed a lighter, faster-paced piece to raise energy mid-concert.
More Candlelight Options Available
Despite the tweaks suggested, the reviewer states they would return to see another programme or new setlist. Other Candlelight options include a Michael Jackson tribute, Christmas classics, ABBA vs. Queen and the Best of Hans Zimmer. Tickets are available from Fever's website.
