Everything Theatre

War, time travel, and trauma collide in an impressive, compassionate adaptation of Vonnegut’s notoriously difficult novel

A vague narrative and poor puns sink this overlong piece of gig theatre.

Offers an authentic, relatable portrayal of young people on the cusp of adulthood.

Troubled rendition of a classic theatre text

A Hollywood movie in theatre: intimate, political, and emotionally dense

An ongoing inquiry into the body as ‘home’, where the human vessel is subject to creating, loss and renewal

A teenage girl tries to deal with grief when tragedy disrupts her perfect life

Hilariously chaotic antics from Novem Ensemble hit the mark.

An evening full of delights

A captivating drama which showcases a seemingly harmonious lifestyle, until an outside influence uncovers truths and challenges beliefs.

A compelling exploration of friendship and forgiveness at the end of the world.

A moving and deeply human performance from Pete Ashmore boosts this intimate two-hander

What begins more a Ted Talk about why D became a dominatrix turns on its head as she peels off the catsuit that is her protection from the world, revealing a surprising depth. 

A touching family drama that dares to ask the important questions about motherhood and sacrifice.

As the lights go out, a brilliantly committed cast lets chaos and laughter shine bright.

Shakespeare delivered in a fun, welcoming and interactive way. This intimate production makes the audience feel right at home in this magical mash-up of mortals and fairies.

A sharp, funny unravelling of burnout and boxed in living

An ambitious exploration of autonomy and identity elevated by its strong central performance

No hat-trick for The Barbican. High-quality fun as it is, their third Cole Porter revival in recent years doesn’t quite hit the right notes.

Provocative and complex, Are You Watching? holds a mirror up to the audience and dares them to look away.

Thirty-one dancers move with the cohesion of a hive mind, transforming dense, detail-packed tableaux into the work's choreographic signature.

Winter is not a season, it’s a way of life for Flip Fabrique.

A stunning production with an impeccable ensemble of moving and idiosyncratic characters played with no-fuss humour, heart, and humanity. This is an extraordinary piece of theatre.

Stephens and Valentine excel in this powerful and intimate revival. 

A comically surreal reflection on the decline of our natural world through the non-human eyes of scarecrows imagining a new one.

An enthusiastic, if flawed, re-imagining

Starkid’s triple-threat apocalypse hits the West End like a meteor

Incisive wit, humour, and honesty, cleverly staged and delivered.

A sumptuous and ambitious revival of a classic that highlights its continued relevance.

A lazy script and scattershot plotting can't rescue this shouty Holmes adaptation, despite enthusiastic performances and a starring revolving stage.

Molly G takes a dive into the 2025/26 Ballet Season Did you know there’s a ballet “season”? Neither did many of our team until our reviewer Molly G mentioned it. For the football fans amongst us, it did throw up questions as to whether this meant there was a ballet transfer season; would the Royal Ballet be swooping in to poach the promising new left-back from Sadler’s Wells, and who might be out of contract and looking for a new challenge with a new team soon. Alas, this apparently doesn’t quite happen. Nonetheless, it felt a good time to look back at the season, and what it may have told us about the current trends in ballet. And who better to ask then than the one person who already knew all about the ballet season. The 2025-2026 ballet season is drawing to a close and companies up and down the UK are preparing to begin their summer hiatus. This was a season where creativity and dancer centred programming took precedence over traditional narrative form, with mixed bills emerging as the dominant artistic structure.
