Magical production choices outweigh occasionally clunky delivery in this alternative Christmas tale.

Sh!t Theatre delivers a truly unique, wickedly funny and sobering lesson on populism and how history (mis)remembers powerful women.

A roaring and reliable pantomime-reminiscent show sure to become a staple in anyone’s festive schedule.

Review: Dancing Shoes, Traverse Theatre
In a time of seemingly pervasive toxic masculinity, Dancing Shoes offers a joyful vision of male friendships, solidarity, and the delight of sharing one’s true self.

Review: Never Tell Me The Odds, Old Red Lion Theatre
A thoughtful reflection on the risks and rewards of connecting with others. This valuable lesson is taught by companions both real and imaginary.
-
Review: Boys in the Buff, Golden Goose Theatre
A cheeky, high-energy musical revue promoting body positivity, with strong performances and clever music, but with ultimately repetitive ideas.

Review: The Signalman, Drayton Arms Theatre
This two-person Dickens adaptation features a detailed but claustrophobic design and despite obvious effort the story is muddled and unclear.
-
Review: Cinderella and the Matzo Ball, JW3
A refreshingly original take on the classic tale, this is great fun for all of the family, and anyone else too!
-

Bourne’s choreography elegantly soars in a dance show that will capture your heart.

Review: Kenrex, The Other Palace
Exceptional stagecraft, virtuoso multi-roling, and live music bring astonishing theatricality to a gripping true crime story.
