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.

Review: ROT. HUSK. LOSER., Park Theatre
A refreshing reboot of rep theatre with four curious mini plays spanning rotting to Ramadan; tensions to tomatoes.
-
Review: Firewing, Hampstead Theatre
Firewing has a strong cast but feels cluttered, looking for a bit too much through the lens.
-
Review: A Picnic Indoors, The Space
A new play full of difficult topics and important themes that currently lacks bite
-
Review: The Waves, Jermyn Street Theatre
Flora Wilson Brown's adaptation of Virginia Woolf's The Waves is vibrant and glittering, effortlessly capturing the strange warp and weft of the novel in a new form.
-
Review: The Price, Marylebone Theatre
A superbly acted Arthur Miller masterclass in family tension, where the real price isn’t on anything in the attic.
-
Review: Don’t Panic, Etcetera Theatre
Demonstrating that you don’t need to be stuck in an underground bunker to create a glorious dystopian world. Don’t Panic is funny, moving and beautifully crafted.
-
Review: Nayatt School Redux, Coronet Theatre
A compelling and exhilaratingly confusing experiment in time and understanding that pays glorious tribute to performers and performance gone before.
-
Review: Two Halves Of Guinness, Park Theatre
A dazzling solo tribute resurrects a legendary British acting chameleon, celebrating his iconic roles, while the private man behind them remains somewhat elusive
-
Review: Channel Surfing at the End of Days, Hen and Chickens Theatre
It’s a clever idea, channel hopping and catching just glimpses of scenes, but the parts fail to gel together in a way that makes the whole feel complete.
-
Review: Hold the Line, The Hope Theatre
A tense drama about an NHS 111 call handler, where everything said is recorded (for training purposes), toilet breaks are restricted, and a casual mistake can have deadly consequences.
