Everything Theatre Reviews, interviews and news for theatre lovers, London and beyond

Competent acting, compelling music, and high production values hold together a story that is at its best bizarre and at its worst manic and unpleasant.

An impressive and magical display of human skills. 

It's nothing fancy, but nevertheless a show that's great fun to enjoy with a drink and some friends.

A chilling and unsettling story that is brought to life admirably.

Bodes well for the Fringe 2015!

Richard Burton’s life is a fascinating but familiar story and despite a good performance from Rhodri Miles, the show sheds no new light on its subject.

Although this theatre is far away from anyone and anything, a couple of sterling performances in the second half make the trek worth it.

New and bold ideas, but no overall satisfying pay off. For avid fringe fans, but would not work so well for a general audience.

Last year's WWI centenary inspired many offerings on stage. Eva de Valk considers the role of theatre in commemorating conflict.

Warm and convincing portrayal of a tender and tumultuous mother-son relationship. Limited in scope but compelling and moving.
