Drama
A staple for us and for many if you fancy a more traditional play. When we first started Everything Theatre it was specifically to review drama. We’ve branched out over the years, but it will always be a favourite of ours.
-
Review: Baldwin Vs Buckley, Wilton’s Music Hall
A lucid and relevant reconstruction of a historic debate that fascinates and resonates, but is it theatre?
-
Review: Exhuming Emily, Etcetera Theatre
A well chiselled solo show, performed with skill and momentum.
-
Review: The Rat Trap, Park Theatre
An early Coward play resurfaces as more than just an intellectual curio.
-
Review: Spin Cycles, Camden People’s Theatre
A vibrant and heartfelt one-woman show that provides a fresh, contemporary take on grief, healing and identity in your 30s.
-
Review: Crown of Blood, Crucible Theatre, Sheffield
A powerful retelling of Shakespeare's Macbeth which translates brilliantly to this new Yorubaland setting.
-
Review: Boxes, Soho Theatre
A vital story that tells of a life of uncertainty and hardship.
-
Review: A Fine Kettle of Fish, Old Red Lion Theatre
An energetic and entertaining take on the classic murder mystery, swapping out contemplative seasoned detectives for loud and lively students crashing through the case.
-
Review: Was Jane Austen Gay?, Actors Church
What better way to honour the recent 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s death than by exploring her potential queerness in an infamous 17th‑century church?
-
Review: Maggots, Bush Theatre
Farah Najib’s unsettling drama is a portrait of housing failure, social paralysis and exemplary storytelling.
-
Review: The Tempest, Sam Wanamaker Playhouse
Full of dangerous gambits and forays into farce, Tim Crouch's The Tempest is a daring exercise in meta-theatrical theory.
