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.

A Taste of Honey, National Theatre – Review
An excellent revival of the play and a reminder of the remarkable achievement of the young working-class playwright, Shelagh Delaney.
-
The Fat Man’s Wife, Canal Café Theatre – Review
The show delivers what you want out of a Williams play, with panache and charm to spare.
-
Superior Donuts, Southwark Playhouse – Review
An urban drama that brilliantly portrays the complexities and greatness of everyday life stories. There could be an Arthur and Franco behind the counter of any donut shop.
-
The Peculiar Tale of Pablo Picasso and the Mona Lisa, Brockley Jack Studio Theatre – Review
An exciting tale, featuring an exciting cast. Fuelled with absinth, women and artistic uniqueness, this is a hard story to tell. Fourth Monkey does it with such flair, intelligence and wit it’s extremely hard to imagine anyone able to do…

1984, Almeida Theatre – Review
A fearless and captivating adaptation. Fiercely intelligent staging and spellbinding multimedia effects combine to make a masterpiece out of a masterpiece.
-
Hannah, The Unicorn Theatre – Review
Intelligent and nail-bitingly other-worldly, this is an exhilarating and fast-paced production that will appeal to all ages.
-
Oh What A Lovely War, Theatre Royal Stratford East – Review
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry. Go and see it, but not after a bad day at work.
-
The Secret Life of You and Me, Ovalhouse – Review
A scrapbook of stories and memories that may only skim the topics' surfaces but in a charming and visually stunning way.
-
Richard III, Upstairs at the Gatehouse – Review
This adaptation lacks subtlety but it gets the job done.
-
In Skagway, Arcola Theatre – Review
A well-acted play with an uncomfortable twist at the end that will certainly be a point for discussion.
