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.

Mr Quinn’s Radio Theatre, Network Theatre – Review
The hidden location is fun to find, but unfortunately the performance had a shambolic quality that wasn’t entirely intentional.
-
Somewhere Under The Rainbow: The Liza Minnelli Story, The Landor Theatre – Review
A one-of-a-kind production, beautifully executed. An absolute treat.
-
Scottish Widows, White Bear Theatre – Review
Four well written and original monologues that tweak funny bones and heart strings alike.
-
A Trick To Catch The Old One, Rose Theatre – Review
This excellent production shows that Elizabethan/Jacobean theatre isn’t limited to Shakespeare. Jolly good fun!
-
The Belinda Tree, St. James Theatre – Review
A moving storyline, brought to life by imaginative direction and top class performances from an up-and-coming cast.
-
Richard III, The Cockpit – Review
Smoothly spoken and well paced, this production overcomes its weaknesses with powerful performances.
-
Yesterday’s Tomorrow, Drayton Theatre – Review
A mixed bag - the portrayal of a gay relationship in the army worked, but the portrayal of war left a lot to be desired.
-
De Profundis, Leicester Square Theatre – Review
A haunting and beautiful new musical based on a sorrowful letter Oscar Wilde wrote while imprisoned for homosexuality.
-
A Small Family Business, National Theatre – Review
Overall the play seems torn between making a statement and being funny, but the great performances and set easily make up for that.
-
Foreplay, King’s Head Theatre – Review
You don’t have to be a brainiac to enjoy this psychosexual thriller. An entertaining look at the private lives and ideas of some of the greatest minds of the postwar central European generation.
