Doctor Selavy’s Magic Theatre, New Wimbledon Studio – Review
Once you get past trying to figure out what’s going on, and instead just relish in the show’s wackiness and unpredictability, it becomes a highly enjoyable piece of musical theatre.

The Gay Naked Play, Above the Stag – Review
An hilarious romp through the ups and downs of a theatre company with a little bit of nudity to keep you happy. What more could you want?

97 Years, Battersea Arts Centre – Review
This piece offers a very personal experience to each audience member of a relationship between grandfather and granddaughter.
-
How to be Immortal, The Albany – Review
Death, love and DNA are the subjects of this touching, sometimes funny play, which combines acting, live cello music based on DNA code, and beautiful animation of cells dividing before your eyes.
-
The Golden Dragon, The Drayton Arms Theatre – Review
A distinctive, absurdist play which provides fresh insight into the plight of global migrants. However, the lack of tightness and deftness compromises the comedy and emotion of what is quite a touching story.
-
Blasted, The Old Theatre (LSE) – Review
Some good moments, but lacked consistency. A brave production.
-
Fallen Angels, The Rose Theatre – Review
The perfect opportunity for journeying back to the theatre world of the 1930s. Hysterics ensured with these two saucy ladies.
-
Straying in Seattle, White Bear Theatre – Review
Some excellent talent on show; the second piece is very funny but the first is mismatched and misjudged.
-
A Fool’s Proof, The Vaults – Review
A witty, refreshing production on the media’s emphasis on sensation over truth that beautifully combines acting with live music, movement and puppetry.

Half A Person: My Life As Told By The Smiths, Kings Head Theatre – Review
Belying the show’s title, ‘Half a Person’ would appeal to not only Smiths fans, but also those not so familiar with their music.
