Everything Theatre

An intense dive into a band's gruelling creative process and fraught relationships. Like any great record, Stereophonic feels like one that will grow and grow with repeated playback.

An electric and claustrophobic dance retelling of James Baldwin’s Givonni’s Room.

The Dominion Theatre recently hosted The Elvis Years, a one-night event celebrating Elvis’ career asa singer and actor, from his first studio sessions in Memphis in 1953 to his death in 1977. It’s animposing and capacious theatre (over 2,000 seats) which rapidly filled with excited Elvis fans lookingforward to the 2 hours plus show ahead. There were some wonderful costumes and hairstylesreminiscent of the early Elvis years, and anticipation of the performance ahead. Directed and produced by David Mackay, this established show is set on a simple stage with dias forband equipment, such as the drum kit and keyboards, and of course, Elvis. A large screen projectionto the rear of the stage begins the narrative of the early 1950s, playfully tuning an old radio set inanticipation of music.

Take a space, add dancers, beautiful lighting and music, small children and tape: it all adds up to an overwhelmingly joyful, empowering and creative experience.

A garden, a mother, a daughter, and a looming line of work. Bernard Shaw’s searing social commentary springs eternal with Imelda Staunton and Bessie Carter as head gardeners.

Artistic references mixed with modern, which results in a hilariously silly show.

A flamenco masterpiece in four acts

A timely, hugely powerful articulation of the relentless human impact of disaster
