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: Medea, Coronet Theatre
A breathtaking retelling of Euripides’ classic, fusing Japanese traditional and experimental theatre and contextualising Medea’s rage as an act of revolution as well as revenge. Stunning, shocking, symbolic and, in places, spectacular, this is an unforgettable theatre experience
-
Review: Open Source Intelligence and Counterinsurgency for the Jobbing Hater, The Space
Chinese actor Lili stalks another actor who is the same casting type, in this funny and poignant industry satire that dives into issues of rage, self-hatred and intergenerational trauma
-
Review: 54.60 Africa, Arcola Theatre
Traverse this mighty continent with these fearless travellers in a powerful compendium of Africa’s stories, emotions and music.
-
Review: Toxic and Hermione’s Dinner, White Bear Theatre
Two topics, both alike in interest, in fair Kennington, where we lay our scene. Alright, no more mangled quotes but Golden Age Theatre’s double-bill on contemporary themes at The White Bear has mixed results
-
Review: Union Shorts, Union Theatre
A potpourri of plays showcasing the best of fringe theatre.
-
Review: Mrs Dalloway, London Library
An outstandingly creative and profoundly respectful re-imagining of a classic currently celebrating its 100th anniversary.
-
Review: Sweetheart, Lion and Unicorn Theatre
A superb 1960s tale of domestic bliss and mindless murder, all with a rather unexpected twist that turns everything on its head in sublime style.
-
Review: H to He (I’m turning into a Man), Finborough Theatre
An energetic, self-deprecating, and vividly convincing depiction of the journey of transitioning from female to male, played throughout with humour.
-
Review: Steel, Park Theatre
Think of being 17 again, and then think of being 17 and finding out you could inherit a million pounds. Would this life-changing amount of money give you the power to be who you always wanted?

Review: Attempts on her Life, Hen and Chickens Theatre
A fascinating and ambitious take on Martin Crimp’s 1997 play, that at times thrills but risks overloading the senses.
