Ongals: Babbling Comedy, Soho Theatre – Review
An hour’s worth of very silly, but fun, antics from a Korean clown troupe. The perfect break from the West End Christmas crowds.
-
Shadows, Theatro Technis – Review
This important discourse on what it means to be black contains some eye-opening conversations. Unfortunately, the script drags and fails to deliver the drama and tension it is clearly meant to.
-
The Woman in White, Charing Cross Theatre – Review
Our Verdict: One of the great Victorian stories is finally enhanced by song in this entertaining, revised musical.
-
The Passing of the Third Floor Back, Finborough Theatre – Review
This show constitutes an intriguing and enjoyable evening that entertains in the present but also raises interesting questions about the past.
-
Animus, Laban Theatre – Review
An interesting story with powerful performances in a beautiful theatre.
-
Goats, Royal Court Theatre – Review
Goats starts with a strong premise and some powerful scenes, but a confusing narrative, a muddled set and patchy performances fail to do it justice.
-
Menagerie, House of Kittens – Review
An evening of supposed "erotic storytelling", Menagerie frustrates due to an overly full venue.
-
Crick Crack Club’s 30th Birthday Bash, Rich Mix – Review
Dipping a toe in childhood and being allowed some naughty anecdotes is a privilege reserved for grown-ups.
-
La Soirée, Aldwych Theatre – Review
Sheer breathtaking variety of wonderment that cannot fail to put a smile on your face.
-
White Pearl, Rich Mix – Review
Fearlessly confronting issues of racial and national identity, xenophobia and political correctness, White Pearl is both timely and watchable. Some characters’ habits and actions do irritate, but overlook them to enjoy this thought-provoking play.
