An interesting exploration of the relationship between exploitation and entertainment in reality TV. The ideas are compelling and the acting is strong, but play would benefit from tighter structure and plot.

A wonderful celebration of 20 years of work by Richard Alston Dance Company, and a promise of more good things to come.

An ingenious, joyful and inventive piece of physical theatre that brings the end of the jazz era to life through beautiful performances, clever use of percussion, and play with light and shadow.

A marathon performance of a bloody saga with very impressive acting.

Ibsen’s tale of domestic repression may well have been daring in 1879, but feels more like a dusty museum piece now.

This engaging production is a great reflection of Generation Arts’s commitment to fostering the talent of marginalised aspiring actors.

An ode to that one awful play that every theatre practitioner or goer has been involved in or seen and hated,but has great stories to tell in the aftermath to make everyone laugh. A collation of all those stories for the public’s entertainment.

Some enjoyable moments of silliness, but there’s not much more to this children’s show.

The ideal combo of effortless humour with a subtly dark undertone.

A good show with real potential to develop into a great one.
