BWW Review: LAVA, Soho Theatre
When Lava was first staged, at the Nottingham Playhouse in 2018, its central plot point of an asteroid hitting North London and causing thousands of casualties may have seemed implausible - over-dramatic, even. Now remounted at the Soho Theatre as we move out of a global pandemic, these themes of loss, and of solidarity in the face of unprecedented tragedy, feel very different.

BWW Review: THE LAST FIVE YEARS, Garrick Theatre
There is something unexplainable and idiosyncratically intimate about Aria Entertainment’s The Last 5 Years. In a journey begun at Southwark Playhouse right before the pandemic hit our stages, Jonathan O’Boyle’s production of Jason Robert Brown’s beloved musical has redefined the piece itself to the point where now there probably isn’t a purest way to make the show.
