-
The First Man, Jermyn Street Theatre – Review
A well-executed and well-delivered production in a cosy and welcoming little venue.
-
The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists, CLF Art Café – Review
An innovative and theatrical presentation of a classic working-class tale that, while occasionally difficult to follow, was fun and engaging overall.
-
30 Second Opera, Ivy Press – Book Review
A great introduction to opera, transforming a subject that’s often considered inaccessible into an easier-to-digest format with lively, in-depth writing.
-
The Great Gatsby, Greenwich Theatre – Review
The stylish suits and dresses couldn't quite save this production, which fails to make Gatsby great and relies too much on quoting long passages as exposition.
-
She Called Me Mother, Stratford Circus Arts Centre – Review
A moving tale about life as a homeless woman, this poignant production will certainly speak to your humanity.
-
The White Feather, Union Theatre – Review
Despite some excellent performances and some really lovely songs, this sweet show is let down by a script which is trying to be more complex and complicated than it can manage.
-
The Love of the Fireflies (El amor de las luciérnagas), The Pit at the Barbican – Review
Entertaining, funny and smart. You’ll enjoy many laughs but will leave the theatre with some serious existential questions on how you relate to the loved ones… and yourself.
-
Pure Imagination, St James Theatre
A stunning night of toe tapping musical theatre celebrating the works of Leslie Bricusse
-
Young Men, Sadler’s Wells – Review
A stellar production of modern dance with some hard hitting themes and an exquisite score.
-
Volpone, or The Fox, Jack Studio Theatre – Review
A faithful and flamboyant revival of a well-worn classic. As relevant today, as it ever has been.
