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: Cataclysmic, The Hope Theatre
A highly experimental, emotional one-person show that explores grief and memory through classic and immersive performance.
-
Review: The Effect, Old Red Lion Pub and Playhouse
Driven by electric chemistry between its leads, this is a tender and intelligent exploration of what it means to feel.

Review: Wife to James Whelan, Jermyn Street Theatre
Small town hopes and frustrations brought to life, but beware ongoing pride and stubbornness.

Review: The 2nd Annual Great Canadian Theatre Festival!, Old Red Lion
If these two script-in-hand productions are a taster of what Canadian theatre is all about, then we should be welcoming our overseas friends along more often.

Review: Perhaps, Etcetera Theatre
An exceptional narrative, a solid script, and a staging and performance that still needs work.

Review: A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre
Inspired casting choices elevate an otherwise middle of the wood production.

Review: Buonarroti, The Hope Theatre
With an engaging premise, good direction and a beautiful set, there’s a lot to like about Buonarroti, in spite of issues with chemistry.
-
Review: Cyrano de Bergerac, The Noel Coward Theatre
Sharp and modern Cyrano blending humour, heartbreak and contemporary relevance

Review: The Burns Project, Royal Lyceum Theatre
An intimate, unique performance examining Robert Burns’s life and work which plucks at the heartstrings.
