Reviews
Night of 100 Solos: A Centennial Event
An ambitious project paying homage to Merce Cunningham, which misses the opportunity to start a new following for the choreographer.
A Hundred Different Words for Love
A heart-warming solo performance on love and how we write about it
Madagascar The Musical
Despite an admirable supporting cast, this musical adaptation is more theme park than West End.
Orlando
In one era and out the other, this flawless production of Virginia Woolf’s classic is a timely piece.
Matilda The Musical
A quirky musical with phenomenal performances, which is let down by its convoluted plot.
Double Bill: Women of the Mourning Fields & Antigone Na H’éireann
An interesting exploration of female roles in history, which is let down by a lack of clarity.
Unfix Festival
The Unfix Festival takes a performative look at climate change and the changing world.
The Taming of the Shrew
A rising call to gender-anarchy that is both playful and provocative.
Leyla Josephine: Daddy Drag
Josephine’s quick wit and charm results in a comedic and compelling homage to fathers.
In the Willows
A modern retelling of a classic children’s story that is filled with life lessons worth sharing.
The Girl on the Train
A gripping, stylish and fully realised adaptation of Paula Hawkins’ bestseller.
Rain Man
A copycat adaptation that cannot escape the classic original’s shadow.
Local Hero
An excellent adaptation of a classic film that is hilarious, heartbreaking and all too relevant.
Nora: A Doll’s House
An inventive reimaging of a classic that bends the rules of time.
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
Exuberant, flawless performances save Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical from becoming staid.
