The Royal Shakespeare Company has been running relaxed performances in Stratford-Upon-Avon since 2013, but Sunday marked their first ever relaxed performance - of Matilda - for a West End audience, bringing the stage adaptation of Roald Dahl's courageous and loved tale to audiences affected by autism and other learning disabilities.

Having never been to the Regent's Park Open Air Theatre before, all I knew was the buzz and excitement other people gave off about previous shows there. Walking through the main entrance, immediately there's a warming and unique atmosphere; perhaps it's just because it's that time of year when we can finally sit outside in England with only a small chance of being rained on. It's a new season at the Open Air, and what better way to begin than with Arthur Miller's classic 'All My Sons', directed by Timothy Sheader.

The heat certainly is on at the Prince Edward Theatre! Finally Miss Saigon has returned to the West End, and what a comeback it has made! At the second preview, the house was full, and as soon as the first note was heard from the orchestra pit you could hear a pin drop.

The threat of global warming and natural disasters are constantly thrust upon us in the news everyday. We know that one day our homes could be taken from us by an earthquake, tsunami, or a tornado, and yet we, in England especially, all still live our lives, happy as ever, like nothing will happen...

Nominees are 1984 (Almeida Theatre), Chimerica (Almeida), Peter and Alice (Noel Coward Theatre), and The Night Alive (Donmar).

Andy Nyman and Jeremy Dyson's 'Ghost Stories' began in Liverpool back in 2010. Since then it's been seen by over 300,000 people in London, Toronto and Moscow. Despite so many people already surviving watching this show, I still genuinely thought I could be seeing the end of my life in the Arts Theatre in London...

We've asked our correspondents to pick out what they're most looking forward to in 2014 - here's reviewer Sarah Flinton's thoughts!

Written by Rodgers and Hart back in 1938 simply because a musical had never been based on a Shakespeare play before, 'The Boys From Syracuse' is the musical telling of The Comedy of Errors, packed with fun, mischief and playful tunes.

Sticking to my word, I am going to keep what happened for three hours on the evening of Thursday 27th June a secret. So if you're looking for spoilers or the revealing of Derren's 'magic' tricks then look elsewhere.

50 years after Oliver! composer Lionel Bart began writing the score and book, this Hunchback of Notre Dame musical finally gets its world premiere.

Gillian Lynne directs and choreographs this British premiere of the musical fable 'Dear World', with music and lyrics by Jerry Herman

Arguably Shakespeare's darkest and most powerful play, 'Macbeth' is selling out in Guildford, and with good reason.
