Review: Tartuffe (Remixed), Marylebone Theatre
A sunshine-filled reinvention of Molière’s classic, full of energy and farcical humour, but with a surprisingly complex seam that adds rich depth.
-
Review: Crybabies: The Scaring, Soho Theatre
The freedom and silliness of a sketch show with the scale to make its ridiculous ideas feel spectacular.
-
Review: You’re So Special, Soho Theatre
A cautionary tale of unhinged ambition.
-
Review: You Are What You Eat, theSpace on the Mile
A pair of bubbling best friends treat us to a silly crime thriller in 70s London. It's silly, it's corny, but it's brilliant fun.
-
Review: Teen Spirit, theSpace @ Surgeons’ Hall
It's a show that still needs work, but there is no denying it’s already a fun offering, especially if you're a bit of rock music geek!
-
Review: Cogito Ergo… Something?, Bedlam Theatre
A classic piece of farce that takes more than a little influence from the TV series Bottom.
-
Review: Verity Sharpe: Landlord’s Wet Dream, Assembly Bristo Square
A mix of stand-up and poetry; it's the latter when Verity Sharpe comes fully alive.
-
Review: Otuz Bir, Venue 13
Tackling female violence with a talking vagina might seem tasteless, but Otuz Bir proves that anything is possible.
-
Review: A Vacuum at the Centre, Paradise in the Vault
There are moments of brilliance, but all too often this show descends into uncontrolled chaos that overshadows all the good.
-
Review: B*tch Eat Dog, Greenside @ George Street
A chaotic puppet sketch show with lots of great moments throughout that suggest there is plenty more to come from this team.
