Bayadere, The Ninth Life, Linbury Studio – Review
A clever collaboration between a classical dance narrative (La Bayadère), dance history and modern thought and interpretation.
-
Vernon God Little, The Space – Review
An enjoyable show which makes excellent use of an intimate venue.
-
Found, The Hope Theatre – Review
An entertaining and engaging play, which will keep you guessing until the end.
-
The Chair, Unicorn Theatre – Review
Although the writing could do with some tightening to increase its cross-generational appeal, Lagden’s onstage presence is so captivating and the props and sound are so well worked that this short piece stands up.
-
Creditors, Jack Studio Theatre – Review
An excellent tale energetically performed by a great cast, but this re-written version of Strindberg’s 1888 play doesn’t always ring true to present day.
-
Hiraeth, Soho Theatre – Review
A very pacey and amusing hour well spent and a corking Welsh Cake provided at the end.
-
These Trees Are Made of Blood, Southwark Playhouse – Review
A powerful study of right-wing politics in South America, told with originality and compassion.
-
Mmm Hmmm, Battersea Arts Centre – Review
An out of this world a cappella production that needs to be seen to be believed!
-
The Pursuit of Now, Buta Festival of Azerbaijani Arts, Sadler’s Wells Theatre – Review
An entertaining evening but the intended showcase for Azerbaijani art seemed to get lost in a wave of virtuosity.
-
The Royale, Bush Theatre – Review
A truly powerful piece of storytelling with an exciting cast. Miss it and you miss something very special.
