Review: Mrs President, Charing Cross Theatre
An interesting two-handed play, touching on the life of Mary Lincoln. Strong performances, but in the end somewhat confusing and unsatisfying.
-
Review: Posh Girls, King’s Head Theatre
A featherweight satire that tells us rich girls have feelings too

Review: Dimanche, Peacock Theatre
Flawless, funny and seriously scary, this might possibly be the best show of the year.

Review: Put Out His Eyes, Lion & Unicorn Theatre

Where New York's Cotton Club swings with Shakespearean flair

Extraordinary transformation of a cult classic film into a queer musical that is brimming with invention and affirmation.

Review: Present Laughter, Exeter Northcott Theatre
A university production of a Coward classic which is produced with great skill and acted with immense fun and warmth complete with a delightful poignancy.

Review: My Mother’s Funeral: The Show, The Yard Theatre
A well meaning production which examines the trauma of bereavement alongside the expensive practicalities of providing a funeral. Well meaning, but in need of more nuance.

Review: Tuesday, The Hope Theatre
A thriller which constantly shifts and challenges perceptions of whether a character is speaking the truth, either to the audience or themselves.
