Bonnie & Clyde meet the Desperate Housewives in the funniest way possible.

Review: Club Mistero, Theatro Technis
A well-crafted whodunnit by a young, talented team

Review: Tea, Texts and Top of the Pops, Barons Court Theatre
Following the journey of loss and grief, two sisters navigate hurt, sadness and pain. With an excellent soundtrack, some script revisions would see this play thrive.

Nothing is ever really nothing in this chaotic, playful and bizarre production

It’s easy to admire the skill involved, but the gimmick feels half-baked.
