Review: The Bang Gang, Riverside Studios
A hilarious parody paying homage to gangster films.

Mesmerising and Mystical

Review: The Sleep Show, Half Moon Theatre
A playful but often unfocused dance-theatre piece for ages 4+, inspired by sleep theory research and featuring some lovely moments.

Review: Little M, The Place
A coming of age story reimagined using dance, projection and puppetry to transform The Little Mermaid into an aesthetic tale/tail of acceptance and self-discovery.

Review: Wyld Woman: The Legend of Shy Girl, Southwark Playhouse
Hilarious characterisations, poignant commentary on shyness and blowjob ballet sums up Isobel Renner’s brilliant, from the heart examination of a Shy Girl’s mission to overcome her social anxiety and face her fears.

Review: Sit or Kneel, The Other Palace
An ambitious but underdeveloped production with a lot of heart.
-
Review: This Little Earth, Arcola Theatre
This absolute gem of a show delivers up a (snow)storm, in a deceptively clever, superbly surreal contemplation of the confusing world of fake news and conspiracy theories.

Review: Bloody Mary and the Nine Day Queen, Union Theatre
Bold but uneven, Bloody Mary and the Nine Day Queen suffers from clumsy direction and clunky writing, yet is still worthy of celebration by musical theatre fans.
-
Review: Crocodile Fever, Arcola Theatre
A dark comedy set in The Troubles that is both shocking and gripping. Female rage takes the forefront as two sisters reconnect and enact revenge.
-
Review: Little Brother, Soho Theatre
A tender portrait of care, exhaustion and love filled with dark humour
