Review: You Are What You Eat, theSpace on the Mile
A pair of bubbling best friends treat us to a silly crime thriller in 70s London. It's silly, it's corny, but it's brilliant fun.

Review: Halfway Home, theSpace on the Mile
This play about family ties and the plight of prisoners has some bright moments but struggles to say anything new in an already crowded field.

Review: You & It, King’s Head Theatre
A musical that tackles love, loss and artificial intelligence, but where the emotional circuitry never quite manages to connect
-
Review: Midnight in Nashville, The Glitch
A good country epic, but one that could use another verse.

Review: Woodhill, Zoo Southside
Theatre that is more than just something to watch. Woodhill is the start of the conversation, and it is our job to make sure everyone hears it.

Review: Teen Spirit, theSpace @ Surgeons’ Hall
It's a show that still needs work, but there is no denying it’s already a fun offering, especially if you're a bit of rock music geek!

Review: Extra Dry, Greenside @ Riddles Court
An honest piece of storytelling about an addiction not to booze but to the fun person she believes she becomes with a few drinks inside her.

Review: Cogito Ergo… Something?, Bedlam Theatre
A classic piece of farce that takes more than a little influence from the TV series Bottom.
-
Review: A Slow Fire, Jermyn Street Theatre
A tense three‑hander set in a claustrophobic bunker and driven by strong performances, striking design and clever storytelling. It explores hope, survival and shifting power dynamics in an intimate post‑apocalyptic world.

Review: Fractured, Underbelly Cowgate
Clever production values keep this mysterious play moving along at pace as we try to piece together the fragments of Eva’s memories of events.
