Drama
A staple for us and for many if you fancy a more traditional play. When we first started Everything Theatre it was specifically to review drama. We’ve branched out over the years, but it will always be a favourite of ours.

Review: The Other Mozart, Omnibus Theatre
Visually arresting, it’s a sweeping emotional account of how the equally talented sister of Mozart was almost written out of classical musical history – until now that is!
-
Review: Quiet Light, Baron’s Court
A ghost story with excellent bones, but also some rough edges.
-
Review: TR[IA]L, White Bear Theatre
A timely sci-fi thriller with a clever twist and sharp design, though the show occasionally prioritises atmosphere for character development
-
Review: Steel Magnolias, OSO Arts Centre
This textbook rendition of an eighties classic charms and engages even if it does not offer anything new.
-
Review: Boiler Room Six: A Titanic Story, Pleasance Theatre
A standout (dare I say titanic?) performance in a sharp script, supported by excellent sound and lighting.
-
Review: Love Letters to Stalin, Golden Goose Theatre
Despite a fascinating historical setup, this production fails to find its heart, resulting in a repetitive, humdrum tale
-
Review: My Uncle Is Not Pablo Escobar, Brixton House
An interesting start soon becomes a mash-up of styles, and the show fails to live up to its early promise.
-
Review: Stuck in Transit, Old Red Lion Theatre
An interesting story demonstrating two very different halves of society, hampered by an uneven pace between them.
-
Review: Dear Jack, Dear Louise, Arcola Theatre
A gentle, uplifting wartime love story told through letters, filled with humour, heart, and hope. A beautifully staged reminder that even in dark times, human connection still shines.

Review: Talking Heads, The White Bear Theatre
Compelling performances and inventive staging refresh Alan Bennett’s seminal monologues, carrying the audience to devastating depths.
