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: A Letter To Lyndon B. Johnson Or God: Whoever Reads This First, Soho Theatre
This deft two-hander doesn’t hold back in its imaginative critique of the Vietnam war.

Review: The Winter’s Tale, Guildhall School of Music and Drama
A brave endeavour to tackle a problematic play, but somewhat neutered by deep cuts to the script.

Review: What If They Ate The Baby?, Soho Theatre
A surreal, sinister exploration of 1950s suburbia, where perfect smiles and pastel facades crumble to reveal a chilling undercurrent of conformity and repression.
-
Review: The Society for New Cuisine, Omnibus Theatre
A darkly immersive, impressively visceral exploration of male mental health, with serious bite.
-
Review: Good Grief, Hen and Chickens Theatre
An informative and personal exploration of the different emotions arising from grief, and the differing approaches of how to care for yourself and others affected by it.

Review: Moderation, The Hope Theatre
A shocking and thrilling reflection on the consequences of getting our kicks from clicks.

Review: Paradise Lost (lies unopened beside me), Battersea Arts Centre
A one-man epic that demonstrates the true craft of storytelling and conveys a daunting text with humanity and charm.

An excellent premise, neatly performed, makes this an intriguing and highly topical production.

Possibly the most powerful piece of political theatre you will see this year.
