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.
-
The Dead Shepherd, White Bear Theatre – Review
A gripping play that expertly blends fact and fiction.
-
Stevie, Hampstead Theatre Review
Endearing and witty but more like being a read a story in a lounge nicer than your own rather than a dynamic slice of theatre.
-
Boy in the Darkness, Blue Elephant Theatre – Review
Murphy is stunningly versatile in this performance, but the piece fails to fully grab the attention of the audience.
-
Lovesong of the Electric Bear, The Hope Theatre – Review
A clever, exciting and surprising play. Unusual and experimental yet still accessible and fun to watch.
-
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.
