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.

Animals, Theatre 503 – Review
Animals poses some truly challenging questions about where our society is heading but the execution of these ideas, at least at present, is a little clumsy.
-
Lampedusa, Soho Theatre – Review
Eye-opening and ear-poppingly shocking. With subtlety and wit in equal measure, we’re told a story that actually matters.
-
Voices, Lion and Unicorn Theatre – Review
Prepared to be baffled by this mix of WWI poetry, interspersed with a veteran’s real life story. Suitable for those already familiar with the poems or those up for a neighbourhood play between drinks.

King Lear – The Rose Playhouse, Review
It’s the right play, with the right cast, in the right venue. A great addition to the performance history of King Lear.
-
Death Row Cowboy, The Courtyard Theatre – Review
A solid production debut – with some great strengths, and a few weaknesses. Three Peas have potential.
-
Blush of Dogs, Tabard Theatre – Review
Fragen Theatre Company’s brave attempt at a new Greek tragedy is a mixed bag. Although sometimes a bit slow, there are moments of visceral brilliance.
-
Hard Graft, Ovalhouse Theatre – Review
All very likeable, but unfortunately lacking conviction.
-
So It Goes, Shoreditch Town Hall – Review
A production whose apparent simplicity masks highly complex, well thought out ideas that slowly unfold into an honest and open account of what it is like to grieve.
-
Abyss, Arcola Theatre – Review
Clever, pacey and fluid. We are carried along the plot so smoothly that we lose a sense of our own time and space.

The Tulip Tree, Drayton Arms Theatre – Review
This is a charming and absorbing portrayal of a truly unique character. A really lovely evening at the theatre.
