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: Deep Azure, Shakespeare’s Globe
World-making at its finest, in a thrilling tale of murder, betrayal and revenge that blends exceptional hip hop theatre with classic Shakespeare.
-
Review: The Story of Peer Gynt, Coronet Theatre
An accomplished and heartwarming performance, in which Kåre Conradi reflects on how Gynt became Norway’s most unlikely national hero.
-
Review: Little Sister, The Glitch
Some fantastic writing that addresses both our obsession with true crime docs, podcasts and mental health, but it’s currently let down by its presentation.
-
Review: Orange Flower Water, Old Red Lion Pub & Playhouse
Strong, committed performances lift this 90-minute play from fairly interesting to really good.
-
Review: Viy, Golden Goose Theatre
A folk horror delight with immersive design and powerful physical performances
-
Review: Dr Faustus, The Courtyard Theatre
An engaging version of the classic tale that keeps the message intact throughout its modernised adaptation.
-
Review: The Seafarer, Putney Arts Theatre
An excellent cast does justice to McPherson's tender script.
-
Review: Othello, Network Theatre
A disconnected performance of a Shakespeare favourite.
-
Review: Too Small To Tell, Riverside Studios
An important and moving account of the ongoing repercussions for Weinstein’s lesser-known victims, and a powerful reminder of the lasting impact for anyone who feels their voice is “too small”.

Review: Donbas, Theatre503
A deep dive into the complexity and human cost of the conflict in Ukraine
