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.
-
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.
-
An Intervention, Watford Palace Theatre – Review
A classic Bartlett play that entertains while giving food for thought.
-
A Dashing Fellow, New Diorama Theatre – Review
A very enjoyable piece that is definitely worth the watch. Could have benefitted from being a bit more ambitious with the staging and adaptation of the source stories.
-
Love in the 21st Century, Hen & Chickens Theatre – Review
Actors triumph over the script but that sadly doesn’t make the play worthwhile.
-
The Chairs, The Albany – Review
A challenging but entertaining piece of theatre, encouraging discussion amongst its audience.
-
Orpheus, Battersea Arts Centre – Review
If you have any love for theatre and performance it is imperative you go and see this play.
