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.
-
Henry V, The Rose Theatre – Review
A rather funny version of Henry V with big performances from a small cast.
-
Gulf, Camden People’s Theatre – Review
A highly literate examination of family relationships that will strike a chord in all of us.
-
Playground, The Horse and Stables – Review
An evening of seven very different mini-plays on the theme of deception. Not for someone looking for a comprehensive story to get lost in, but very interesting to see a subject matter manipulated in so many inventive ways.
-
The Tulip Tree: The Love Story of Enoch Powell, Drayton Arms Theatre – Review
An engaging play that doesn’t quite live up to what it promises.
-
Beyond Caring, The Yard Theatre – Review
A funny and, unsettlingly truthful exploration of isolation and instability in modern times.
-
17, Finborough Theatre – Review
This is a relationship drama that veers too often into the realm of soap opera. Possibly with another draft or two it will find a more natural shape and set its focus where it deserves to be.
-
This Was A Man, Finborough Theatre – Review
It's not one of Noël Coward's usual farcical affairs, but a very enjoyable play nonetheless.
-
The Comedy of Errors, Rose Theatre Bankside – Review
A frantic, enjoyable romp showing the Bard’s skill in slapstick and wordplay.
-
The Cherry Orchard, Brockley Jack Studio Theatre – Review
A complete show – terrific acting, design, and direction.
-
The Last Days of Limehouse, Limehouse Town Hall – Review
This site-specific look at 1950s Limehouse Chinatown is an evocative and entertaining glimpse at a recent but forgotten past.
