Review: Dweeb-a-Mania, Polka Theatre
This is the funniest, the finest fighting fiction you will see in the ring, with talent bursting from its sequinned seams!

Review: Silent Approach, Etcetera Theatre
An honest sharing of a unique perspective on the state of the mental health care system, that has all the elements for heartfelt story telling but doesn’t always match its potential.

Review: Change Tempo, The Barbican
A mismatched double-bill of dance demonstrating great talent but with mixed results.

Review: Anansi The Spider, Unicorn Theatre
A strong cast, lovely design and some African heat keep this Anansi revival from growing cold.

A sharp, spooky night out with good laughs and plenty of things that go bump in the night

Bold, captivating and daring improvisation

Review: Blue/Orange, Greenwich Theatre
Star performances elevate muddled material
-
Review: Troilus and Cressida, Shakespeare’s Globe
One of Shakespeare’s least performed plays reimagined for contemporary audiences in a raunchy, comedic light. Mythic heroes become celebrity figures for an examination of toxic masculinity, ego and power.
