New York, please look after this bear.

Based on the terrifying movies written and directed by Oren Peli, the stage adaptation of Paranormal Activity, now playing at the CAA Ed Mirvish Theatre, holds just as much edge-of-your-seat tension with the right amount of carefully timed jump scares that will keep you excited for more. If you're a horror junkie, buckle up.

Kenneth Branagh has returned to Stratford-upon-Avon to tread the boards of the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, where we last saw him 33 years ago as the Prince of Denmark directed by Adrian Noble. This time around, Branagh takes on Shakespeare’s swan song under Richard Eyre. He gets to tick Prospero off his Shakespearean to-do list, and we get to watch another project where the actor-director-writer-producer sticks out like a sore thumb. Eyre struggles to keep Branagh under control.
For musical fans, it's been a long time coming, but the wait is finally over. Beetlejuice: The Musical has crossed the pond and landed in London. It's loud, brash, and certainly won't please Tim Burton purists.

Initially a 1963 novel by John le Carré, The Spy Who Came in from the Cold sneaks into Glasgow this week in a fresh new stage adaptation .

Rosanna Vize’s set for the world premiere of Care is sterile, harshly lit and unromantic. Like Alexander Zeldin’s script, it is almost mundane in its naturalism, yet unflinching in how it approaches its subject: life in a care home, both for the elderly residents and for those who care for them.
Author John Le Carré famously banned stage versions of his work, and he may well have felt quietly vindicated with his decision having seen David Eldridge's adaptation of his third book, The Spy Who Came In From The Cold. Jeremy Herrin directs a cinematic and darkly-tinged production that ends up being more style over substance.

Carlos Acosta’s favourite ballet full of Spanish sun and slapstick humour is a very silly story. But with an audience who’ve braved tube strike misery Don Quixote (Don Q) is just the ticket for a bit of carefree escapism, transporting us to an exotic and colourful land and danced with great relish by a spirited Birmingham Royal Ballet (BRB).
