Wednesday 14th December 2022 at Bernie Grant Arts Centre ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Emma Dorfman It is difficult to imagine how young people must encounter the world of books, words, stories, and imagination when, today, most of these appear in pixelated, digital, two-dimensional forms. However, through The Lost Lending Library Punchdrunk Enrichment has revived what it means... Continue Reading →
Friday 9th December 2022 at Soho Theatre, London. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Jonathan Walfisz Few plays have titles more on the nose than Lesbian Space Crime. At the Soho Theatre’s Upstairs space, the show opens with a bold declarative song saying we’re in for a bit of exactly what it says on the tin. Lesbian Space Crime... Continue Reading →

Monday 21st November 2022 *Work in progress Reviewer: Emma Dorfman Naomi Westerman’s BATMAN is still a work-in-progress, and its work is still showing. When I arrived on a blistering cold Monday night, there were 4 other gracious, but eager, audience members in the house. You couldn’t help but have this inform the tone for the... Continue Reading →

Thursday 27th October 2022 at Brockley Jack Studio Theatre, London. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Emma Dorfman Alternate-history plays, for the most part, have the tendency to be more alien than not. Unfamiliar, dystopic worlds often mean a lot of work on the audience’s part to “figure out” this unfamiliar territory. With Behind Closed Walls, however, writer Daryl... Continue Reading →
Wednesday 26th October 2022 at The Space, London ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Emma Dorfman Wasted time is perhaps the worst feeling of them all. It’s a feeling we all know well, given the events of the past two years. While some moments promoted overdone dramatic tropes that weren’t necessarily my taste, with Des Fleurs, writer Gabrielle Silvestre... Continue Reading →
Tuesday 25th October 2022 at Bush Theatre, London. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Jonathan Walfisz There’s an elephant in the room throughout Anoushka Lucas’s brilliant new play ‘Elephant’ at the Bush Theatre. It’s not the idiomatic type though, as Lucas’s Lylah notes a white middle class audience might prefer. Instead, Lucas’s elephant is very physically present in the... Continue Reading →
Sunday 16th October 2022 at The Other Palace, London ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reviewer: Jonathan Walfisz In a packed auditorium, the singer and actor Ellie Nunn takes to a small stage in The Other Place.
