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.
-
Blush, Soho Theatre – Review
An insightful and powerful production about the victims and perpetrators of sexual revenge in the digital age.
-
Othello, Wilton’s Music Hall – Review
Superb design and movement direction support a tight and powerful contemporary production of Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy.
-
Richard III, Arcola Theatre – Review
A vibrant depiction of one of England's most cruel sovereigns, which has a strong resonance in contemporary politics but doesn't make the most of it.
-
This Was a Man, Leicester Square Theatre – Review
Some sparkling performances from the cast, but they are ultimately let down by unimaginative staging that confuses what era the play is set in and compromises the atmosphere.
-
The Duchess of Malfi, Saint Giles-in-the-Fields – Review
A slightly rocky but enjoyable ride through this mad, blood-splattered Webster classic.
-
No Place for a Woman, Theatre 503 – Review
Moving in every sense of the word, No Place for a Woman captures two women's survival instincts in and around a concentration camp. Though parts of the plot feel patchy, it's an absorbing watch.
-
The Pulverised, Arcola Theatre – Review
The toxic side effects of globalisation through the eyes of four employees of a multinational company.
-
Voices from Chernobyl, Jack Studio Theatre – Review
An incredibly important story that deserves commending for being shared. Thought-provoking and heartfelt throughout.
-
Brimstone and Treacle, Hope Theatre – Review
Although provocative and daring in the 1970s, Dennis Potter’s work hasn’t worn particularly well over the years, but the cast save an otherwise mediocre play.
