Cathartic show in which professional performers work with a group of people who have suffered a stroke.

Despite praiseworthy efforts, rather than challenging the stigma associated with this personality disorder the play only bolsters it.

A daring, innovative new play offering a frightening glimpse into the potential of robots.

Pros: Thought-provoking storytelling from an excellent cast. Cons: The phlegmatic British attitude in the telling of the story left me a bit cold, but then I think that was the point. Fans of Mike Bartlett’s previous work (Dr Foster, King Charles III, Earthquakes in London) might be drawn to the Arcola Theatre in the hope of enjoying more of his writing, and they won’t be disappointed. Originally performed as a BBC radio play Not Talking now takes its stage premiere, and the text ...

A fresh, energetic and funny adaptation of a well known Shakespeare favourite. Lives up to the claim of being an accessible introduction, if by chance you haven’t seen it before.

An engaging but somewhat confused evening of boundary-pushing performance.

A right Royal romp through an alternative 2011, where prince-in-disguise Bertie and his fiancée, pub chef Chelsea, are about to turn Daily Express readers potty.

Despite the play’s moving subject matter, 213 Things About Me fails to engage with the audience and can feel heavy.

An intensely physical and high octane journey through bigorexia and body dismorphia that could do with an emotional punch.

A disturbing, though thoroughly absorbing study of gang culture and knife crime in London.
