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.

Bash: latterday plays, Trafalgar Studios – Review
Pros: Haunting and impacting with powerful and nuanced performances Cons: Maybe a little too dark; if you’re looking for a light evening of entertainment, Neil Labute is not your man. Actually three one-act plays presented in succession, Bash: latterday plays…

Desdemona: A play about a handkerchief, Park Theatre – Review
A well-crafted and humorous Shakespeare-inspired three-hander, which contained some fun and risqué moments.

The Trial of the Jew Shylock, Rosemary Branch Theatre – Review
A neat, streamlined production with a strong cast makes for a very watchable play.
-
Fleabag, Soho Theatre – Review
Fleabag is a fresh and exciting piece of theatre. Expect to split your sides laughing, gasp at its fearlessness and dissolve into its honesty. It is must see new writing.

Twenty-Five & Would Madame Like a Line With Her Blowdry?, The Selkirk Upstairs – Review
Writer, director and actress Laura Patricia Jones is a triple-threat and these plays are worth seeing.

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.

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.
