Review: Lost the Plot: An Improvised Musical, Omnibus Theatre
A masterclass in the art of improv, with the chance to see the world premiere of a brand new musical every month.
-
Review: Wilko: Love and Death and Rock’n’Roll, Southwark Playhouse
A play that offers great musical moments but lacks a clear portrayal of Wilko Johnson.

Review: Love in a Foreign Land, The Playground Theatre
Theo looks back at sixty years of her life from when she was a young woman immigrating to London from Cyprus and attempts to ‘throw the stone behind her’ as she recounts her life with a deceitful husband.
-
Review: CROW / Pigeons, Sadler’s Wells
Two avian-inspired but distinct pieces bring Jules Cunningham’s distinct choreographic voice to the fore.
-
Review: Death On The Throne – The Loosical, Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Extravagant and silly, this is a full force comedy musical that can stand with the best London has to offer. Wickedly funny toilet humour and a catchy soundtrack guarantee this show is Top of The Poops.

Review: A Squash and a Squeeze, Little Angel Theatre
A slick and silly slapstick story that fills an empty house with laughter.
-
Review: Florence, The Other Palace
A superb tragicomedy that interrogates the art world and shows the lengths to which people will go to achieve their dreams.
-
Review: After Agincourt, Lion and Unicorn Theatre
A fascinating retelling of the famous battle from Shakespeare’s Henry V from the perspective of a minor character.
-
Review: Dear Evan Hansen, New Wimbledon Theatre
Incredible vocals and slick sets combine for an impressive show that unfortunately struggles to engage at times, with dated references and a convoluted plot.

Review: The Women of Llanrumney, Stratford East
Azuka Oforka's award-winning debut powerfully portrays the differing lives of women amidst slavery and decaying wealth.
