Book Review: DEVELOPING YOUR EMOTIONAL HEALTH, Nick Hern Books


by Louise Penn - October 24, 2024

This is a toolkit to help creatives in a business which is often hard to navigate, and I feel it is an excellent addition to the material currently available on the subject. It is written in a chatty and approachable style, and the bitesize structure is perfect for reading on the go....

Review: BECOMING NANCY, Birmingham Rep


by Laura Lott - October 16, 2024

Cheese and pineapple on a stick, anyone? The latest musical from Birmingham Rep takes us back to 1970s Britain, where trousers were flared, birthday parties required Iced Gems, and boys definitely didn't play girls in school musicals without everyone having something to say about it.

Review: STONES IN HIS POCKETS, Salisbury Playhouse


by Cheryl Markosky - October 03, 2024

The Irish are renowned for good story telling. From James Joyce, Oscar Wilde, Samuel Beckett and George Bernard Shaw, to simply a good yarn over a pint in a pub. In a long line of cracking good tales, you couldn't get much better than the new immersive revival of Marie Jones' tragicomedy Stones in H...

Review: MY MOTHER'S FUNERAL, Mercury Theatre


by Jess Ashley - September 30, 2024

“In death we are the same” – a phrase which Kelly Jones’ captivating play (…within a play… within a play) beautifully dissects.

Review: THE KING'S SPEECH, Watermill Theatre


by Mica Blackwell - September 30, 2024

The King's Speech achieves something other screen to stage adaptations struggle with: staying true to the spirit while feeling like its own entity. Anchored by a still compelling script and captivating lead duo, the Watermill's production is a beautiful tribute to David Seidler's magnum opus....
