Review: Whole, Camden’s People Theatre
Whole is a gift to a loved one who ran out of time to accomplish a dream and that gift is thoughtful and intelligent and beautifully wrapped in authenticity and originality.

Review: Alex Franklin: Gurl Code, Soho Theatre
Alex Franklin knocks ‘em dead with a Barbapapa of a show; fabulously funny, absurd and intelligent, it creatively reshapes comedy while telling a heart-stoppingly moving trans tale.

Review: Tending, Riverside studios
A raw, urgent love letter to the NHS nurses holding the nation together.

Review: Body Stocking Legion, Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club
Whatever entertainment you might expect from Bethnal Green Working Men’s club, Body Stocking Legion is probably not it! This entertainment is quirky, chaotic, immersive, inclusive, and bawdy but principally good hearted and well-intended.

Review: Dead Mom Play, Union Theatre
A play which explores the five stages of grief in a fun, quick-witted and entirely too relatable way.
-
Review: BROS, Kings Head Theatre
A gut-punching, hilarious, and heartbreaking look at modern masculinity.
-
Review: Heisenberg, Arcola
Loneliness lingers in this queer reimagining of Simon Stephens’ tale of fractured connection.
-
Review: Girls Who War, Lion and Unicorn Theatre
A darkly comic flat-share drama where three women face conscription, argue over love and rent, while a 1940s songstress hauntingly narrates: think wartime absurdity meets millennial chaos with killer vocals and sharp satire.

Review: Supersonic Man, Southwark Playhouse
A compassionate musical take on a real-life tragedy

Review: What Fresh Hell is It?, The Libra
A witty, compassionate and sensitive insight into the complex world of Dorothy Parker - an author, lyricist, poet, and activist who achieved many accolades, and a founding member of the Algonquin Round Table writers’ group – a woman of substance.
