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.

Richard III, Draper Hall – Review
A one-woman, one act, immersive theatre adaptation of Shakespeare’s Richard III really shouldn’t work, but somehow it does. Cleverly adapted and well-executed, this show is intense and more than a little uncomfortable at times.
-
Kite, Soho Theatre – Review
The Wrong Crowd have another joyful show on their hands which I’m sure will delight audiences of all ages. You’ll leave with giant smile on your face.
-
Escaped Alone, Royal Court Theatre – Review
Whilst enjoyable this felt half done, and left me feeling cheated for both the length and it's lack of any clear meaning.
-
Press, The Bread and Roses – Review
The play poses an interesting central question, but everything about it is undercooked
-
As You Might Like it, Rosemary Branch Theatre – Review
A cross between a stand-up routine and a Shakespeare revival, this show is original, funny and clever. The performers are definitely ones to watch.
-
The Pianist of Willesden Lane, St. James Theatre – Review
A well-intentioned and professionally faultless production, invested with personal significance by the actor, but dramatically underwhelming.
-
Clickbait, Theatre 503 – Review
Due to the challenging subject matter, it’s not for everyone but Clickbait is a great, thought-provoking play, exploring social attitudes to sex and woman.
-
The Picture of Dorian Gray, Trafalgar Studios – Review
Less would have been more in every respect except cast size, where more would definitely have been more.
-
The Lighthouse, The Space – Review
A magical performance and story about a well-known saint that speaks to us all. With the January blues hitting hard, this delicate piece of theatre is one not to be missed.
-
Give Me Your Love, Battersea Arts Centre – Review
An enjoyable, if not particularly memorable, hour of original, thought-provoking theatre that ruminates sensitively on a serious topic.
