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.

Titus Andronicus, New Wimbledon Studio – Review
A version of Titus Andronicus which says true to the text while mixing in some new ideas.
-
Moments, Drayton Arms Theatre – review
With a little more work, this play could be a powerful and thought-provoking piece of theatre.
-
RoosevElvis, Royal Court Theatre – Review
The play jumps around, sometimes causing it to feel overly complex and confusing, but dazzling performances by King and Sieh keep the audience entertained.
-
Treasure, Finborough Theatre – Review
A testament to Yiddish 20th Century Theatre, this production is fun to watch, although at times the script seems to get itself into a tangle.
-
Next Lesson, Pleasance Theatre – Review
Interesting, amusing, heart-breaking and well-written – this is a good selection of snapshots of contemporary LBGT characters.
-
Kathy Kirby: Icon/I Play For Me (Double Bill), White Bear Theatre – Review
Two concise and complementary plays which bring the 60s glamour and the shadows behind it into the spotlight.
-
Shooting with Light, New Diorama – Review
An intriguing telling of the careers of two prominent photojournalists, but lacking the spark of emotion.
-
Plaques and Tangles, Royal Court Theatre – review
This is an incredibly intense play; it left me stunned and thinking it over in my mind for the rest of the evening.
-
The Merchant of Vembley, Cockpit Theatre – Review
A great adaption of a classic, taking the discussion of anti-semitism and transposing it onto modern tensions between Muslim and Hindu communities in London.
-
Nobody’s Business, King’s Head Theatre – Review
Light-hearted and fun - If situational comedy and Alan Ayckbourn’s writing are your type of humour then this production will make you smile.
