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.
-
Upper Cut, Southwark Playhouse – Review
A timely, powerful play that’s not afraid of asking the difficult questions.
-
No White Mongoose for Wilma, Etcetera Theatre – Review
A delightfully eccentric study of manners; think 19th century style Come Dine with Me.
-
Othello, Lyric Hammersmith – Review
Frantic Assemble have brought this Shakespeare classic bang up to date, turning it into a modern, relevant tale. If you have ever doubted the accessibility of the Bard’s work, this production will change your mind forever.
-
Boris Godunov, Jack Studio Theatre – Review
A good production, but one that has potential to improve.
-
Lulu: a Monster Tragedy, The London Theatre – Review
A shocking story of lust and murder that successfully veers from comedy and farce to uncomfortable tragedy.
-
Bat Boy, The Musical, Southwark Playhouse – Review
Competent acting, compelling music, and high production values hold together a story that is at its best bizarre and at its worst manic and unpleasant.
-
Pig Girl, Finborough Theatre – Review
A chilling and unsettling story that is brought to life admirably.
-
One Festival (Programme A), The Space – Review
Although this theatre is far away from anyone and anything, a couple of sterling performances in the second half make the trek worth it.
-
If Only . . . , Bread & Roses Theatre – Review
Warm and convincing portrayal of a tender and tumultuous mother-son relationship. Limited in scope but compelling and moving.
-
Made in Britain, Old Red Lion Theatre – Review
This entertaining piece of theatre about the issues young people in the UK are facing today does not quite manage to convince.
