The Merchant of Vembley, Cockpit Theatre – Review
A great adaption of a classic, taking the discussion of anti-semitism and transposing it onto modern tensions between Muslim and Hindu communities in London.
-
Nobody’s Business, King’s Head Theatre – Review
Light-hearted and fun - If situational comedy and Alan Ayckbourn’s writing are your type of humour then this production will make you smile.
-
Dark and Lovely, Ovalhouse – Review
An interesting and engaging study of female afro hair and its meanings in British society.
-
Staging Ages, The Place – Review
An entirely original dance piece which explores the stages of life
-
Playground, Old Red Lion Theatre – Review
A confusing play which unfortunately feels lacking in message
-
Panti Bliss: High heels in low places, Soho Theatre – Review
A funny and (moving in places) drag / stand up show that is a little too long and could have done with a bit of variety. Recommended to hear the inspiring story of how an Irish drag queen took on…
-
In The Heights , King’s Cross Theatre – Review
An exhilarating night of cutting-edge musical theatre that eats any Duracell bunny's dust!
-
Close to You: Bacharach Reimagined, Criterion Theatre – Review
A spellbinding 21st Century makeover for one of the greatest songwriters of the 20th Century.

Crush, Richmond Theatre – Review
This is a wonderfully cheesy show, which may not be for those of you who back away from musical theatre, but I suggest you embrace it and smile.

A House Repeated, Battersea Arts Centre – Review
Think Crystal Maze meets Knightmare meets University Challenge. If you like sussing things out and working as a team to make decisions, you’ll enjoy this work.
