Review: In the Mouth of the Wolf, The Barn Theatre Cirencester
An original, humbling drama based on the true story of author Michael Morpurgo’s uncles, who each performed very different duties during WW2.

Review: Outsider, Sadler’s Wells
Don’t we all want to regress evolutionarily and return to the trees? Ok just me? Well, Dance Reflections does just that with Rachid Ouramdane and the Ballet du Grand Théâtre de Genève’s latest highline extravaganza.

Review: Beegu, Unicorn Theatre
The children are the future in this colourfully playful story about seeing beyond an (admittedly adorable) alien face.
-
Review: Murder, Of Coarse! Canal Café Theatre
An ode to murder mysteries that’s chaotic, clever, and full of potential.
-
Review: Sisters 360, Polka Theatre
An excellent premise and energetic performances get a little lost under competing themes. Plus there’s a surreal puppet…

Review: Tales of Apollo & Hercules, Shoreditch Town Hall
This multidisciplinary take on Classical stories is an engaging double bill.

Review: My Fair Lady, The Questors Theatre
Loverly revival of the classic musical

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.
