Sanctuary
Worthy theatre but with a weak and simplistic ending.
Catalpa
Energetic and clever revival which is showing its age.
The Outsider
Aliens, Michael Jackson and bubbles in this piece of Finnish clowning.
After We Danced
Love lost and love regained in the charming piece of romantic theatre.
Black Magic: Songs Unchained
Moving, brave but flawed show from singer Katt T
Beowulf
This year's sole interpretation of the Anglo-Saxon epic shows weaknesses.
Blind Man's Song
Dreamlike and romantic piece of physical theatre from Theatre Re
Eating Seals and Seagull's Eggs
Exceptional storytelling on show in this take on Irish identity and language.
Hotel Paradiso
Slightly overstaying its welcome Hotel Paradiso is still well worth a visit.
Stalag 17
Billy Wilder’s POW tale still provides great escapism after 62 years.
