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 View From The Bridge, Brighton Open Air Theatre (BOAT)
Miller’s tragedy gains fresh power outdoors, with confident direction, a magnetic Eddie and a chorus-driven tension that thrives in Brighton’s exposed, atmospheric setting.
-
Review: A Woman’s Truth, SPID Theatre
A podcast-recording framing device gives way to a taut, nuanced drama about young women’s naive convictions colliding with the harsh realities of misogyny and violence.
-
Review: Bathroom, Etcetera Theatre
A domestic drama performed in Mandarin that focuses on the breakdown between a couple whilst commenting on larger themes of racism, migration and cultural assimilation.
-
Review: Spare Room, Drayton Arms Theatre
A year on from its Camden Fringe debut, Spare Room is now a much tidier affair that allows it to better focus on its themes of toxic masculinity, consent and complicity.
-
Review: Age, Riverside Studios
A gripping depiction of naivete, curiosity and consequences – travelling into maturity
-
Review: Cleansed, Almeida Theatre
Frecknall carefully threads the hope into Kane’s harrowing fever dream.
-
Review: The Importance of Being Oscar, Park Theatre
A scholarly, restrained portrait of one of our greatest literary figures that, appropriately perhaps, feels overly earnest.
-
Review: Pearls Recommended, Drayton Arms Theatre
A thoughtful and emotionally resonant two-hander exploring duty, identity and expectation.
-
Review: Good for Her!, The Other Palace
Searingly open, tragi-comedic tale of co-dependency

Review: Hedda Gabler, Golden Goose Theatre
A thoughtful, if traditional, adaptation of the classic tragedy.
