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.

Passion, Etcetera Theatre – Review
Overall the show felt slightly unpolished, which was a shame as some of the ideas established, alongside the brilliant music, could lend themselves to a very powerful performance.
-
The Hard Man, Finborough Theatre – Review
A well-executed piece that blurs the lines between good and evil.
-
33, Battersea Arts Centre – Review
A unique and beautifully executed interpretation of a harrowing story. This show is a must see purely for its originality and acting tour de force.

Play.ground: Stonecrabs Young Directors Festival, Albany Theatre – Review
A remarkable achievement for nascent directors and an event to look out for in the future.
-
Rachael’s Café, Old Red Lion Theatre – Review
A well-written and well-acted one-woman show. Rachael’s view of the world is endearing and uplifting. Her journey to womanhood has many touching moments.
-
Border Tales, The Place – Review
An extremely relevant study on the nature of identity using choreography as the main artistic framework of exploration. Particularly interesting in the light of today's political conflicts and the re-examination of UK immigration laws.
-
The Trunk, The Space – Review
It would have worked wonderfully as a short-story but it does not play out well on the stage.
-
Blue Remembered Hills, New Diorama Theatre – Review
Dark, but powerfully performed.
-
Frankenstein: The Modern Prometheus, Lion and Unicorn Theatre – Review
An extremely ambitious and creative production which doesn’t quite hit the spot. Some great horror moments and even better dramatic scenes, but unfortunately these are few and far between.

Tristram Shandy: Gentleman, Tabard Theatre – Review
A gutsy adaptation, brimming with bawdy humour and rich satire.
