Review: JAMES V: KATHERINE, Tron Theatre
by Natalie O'Donoghue - Apr 26, 2024
A Raw Material and Capital Theatres co-production, James V: Katherine continues the theatrical series with the vivid historical storytelling of the previous instalments, set during the reigns of Scotland’s generations of Stewart kings. James V places a lesser-known female historical figure front and centre in the story, with an intimate and up-close performance with focussed, raw and humorous storytelling, directed by Orla O’Loughlin (Enough Of Him / What Girls Are Made Of / Mouthpiece).
Review: ANIMAL, Park Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Apr 22, 2023
Jon Bradfield (script) and Josh Hepple (original story alongside Bradfield) pen a relatable tale of love and lust in the digital age, putting disability centre-stage in all its complicated frustrations. They don’t shy away from bleak comedy and pitch-black wit, presenting an excellent piece of socially engaged theatre that educates and entertains in equal measure directed by Bronagh Lagan.
