EDINBURGH 2023: Review: LUCY AND FRIENDS, Pleasance CourtyardAugust 14, 2023Watching Lucy and Friends is how I imagine a halluncinatory drug trip. From smothering her body with tomato puree to exposing naked truths (literally) to maiming a piñata and cutting a strip-pole with a disc saw, Lucy challenges the limits of art in an absurd combination of comedy, theatre and performance installations.
EDINBURGH 2023: Review: SALOME, Bedlam TheatreAugust 10, 2023There is something surreal about watching a play banned for blasphemous biblical portrayal in an old Church.

Review: ANNIE, King's Theatre, GlasgowMay 30, 2023It’s a hard knock life, but Nikolai Foster’s Annie makes it better. The ultimate comfort musical has returned once again to Glasgow Kings and does not disappoint.
