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.
-
Review: Heart Wall, Bush Theatre
Grief, family and unfolding home truths.
-
Review: What Fatima Did…, Tara Theatre
A groundbreaking, fresh piece highlighting the right to a religious identity, by Tara Theatre Young Company’s new and very talented performers.
-
Review: Gush, Traverse Theatre
An intriguing premise which starts off strong but finishes feeling cut off mid-stream.
-
Review: The Other Mozart, Omnibus Theatre
Visually arresting, it’s a sweeping emotional account of how the equally talented sister of Mozart was almost written out of classical musical history – until now that is!
-
Review: Quiet Light, Baron’s Court
A ghost story with excellent bones, but also some rough edges.
-
Review: TR[IA]L, White Bear Theatre
A timely sci-fi thriller with a clever twist and sharp design, though the show occasionally prioritises atmosphere for character development
-
Review: Steel Magnolias, OSO Arts Centre
This textbook rendition of an eighties classic charms and engages even if it does not offer anything new.
-
Review: Boiler Room Six: A Titanic Story, Pleasance Theatre
A standout (dare I say titanic?) performance in a sharp script, supported by excellent sound and lighting.
-
Review: Love Letters to Stalin, Golden Goose Theatre
Despite a fascinating historical setup, this production fails to find its heart, resulting in a repetitive, humdrum tale
-
Review: My Uncle Is Not Pablo Escobar, Brixton House
An interesting start soon becomes a mash-up of styles, and the show fails to live up to its early promise.
