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.
-
Shrapnel: 34 Fragments of a Massacre, Arcola Theatre – Review
A strong, provocative play which challenges your understanding and perception of war.
-
The Cutting Of The Cloth, Southwark Playhouse – Review
Love and laughter are in the details of this comedy drama of Savile Row in the Fifties.
-
Pride and Prejudice, Rosemary Branch Theatre – Review
Another immensely enjoyable production from Rosemary Branch Theatre. A lively, fast-paced adaptation that doesn’t stop to draw breath, sparkling with Jane Austen’s brilliantly funny characters and witty dialogue.
-
Lorraine & Alan, Battersea Arts Centre – Review
This is a modern retelling of a Celtic myth. Props and sound effects are used in a unique and inventive way; but the play needs a little more development.
-
The Vagina Monologues, Tea House Theatre – Review
Funny, poignant, sometimes uncomfortable, relatable and relevant. If you have a vagina or know someone who has one, this show is for you.
-
The Revenger’s Tragedy, Jack Studio Theatre – Review
A minimalist production of Middleton’s classic text. Designed with a modern eye, but not delivered with the traditional technique that the language demands.
-
Fiction, Battersea Arts Centre – Review
An interesting experience that uses sound in an imaginative way; but the audio-world feels too safe and the storyline is unclear.
-
Lardo, Old Red Lion Theatre – Review
Energetic, touching, and tremendously funny – this show has its heart in all the right places.
-
Milked, Soho Theatre – Review
An absurd and poignant play that wrestles with current issues.
-
Heavens of Invention, Jermyn Street Theatre– Review
Heavens of Invention offers something a little different. It is an inconsistent, but certainly enjoyable evening.
