Review: Archduke, Royal Court Theatre
An energetic, morbidly hilarious exploration of radicalisation and impressionable youth, sitting in the shadow of the events that started the First World War.
-
Review: Perhaps, Etcetera Theatre
An exceptional narrative, a solid script, and a staging and performance that still needs work.
-
Review: A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre
Inspired casting choices elevate an otherwise middle of the wood production.
-
Review: Rayuela, Sadler’s Wells East
Playful, fearless and constantly searching.
-
Review: Buonarroti, The Hope Theatre
With an engaging premise, good direction and a beautiful set, there’s a lot to like about Buonarroti, in spite of issues with chemistry.
-
Review: Arthur, Polka Theatre
A witty, warm-hearted reimagining of the Arthurian legend that combines silliness with genuine emotional depth. Packed with inventive storytelling, great performances and theatrical imagination.
-
Review: Rapunzel, Half Moon Theatre
Visually inventive and musically engaging, Rapunzel has plenty of charm and potential, but currently loses its way, with an overcrowded script and muddled narrative stopping its feminist heart shining through.
-
Review: AFTERDARK, Pride in Kingston
An unusual way to beat the heat while simultaneously supporting hyper-local Pride, rolling around the footings of a 12th-century Saxon bridge over the River Thames proves an unexpected treat.
-
Review: Colossus, Southbank Centre
A kaleidoscopic human murmuration lands at the Southbank Centre
-
Review: Teeth, Playhouse East
A heartfelt story about loneliness, confidence and the need for human connection.
