Review: AN INTERROGATION, Hampstead Theatre
by Katie Kirkpatrick - January 26, 2025
One room, two people. A murder case, as yet unsolved. Jamie Armitage’s An Interrogation takes a simple premise and layers it with questions of gender, class, and responsibility....
Review: MOBY DICK, Barbican Theatre
by Franco Milazzo - January 24, 2025
With life-size puppets and cinematic stylings, Plexus Polaire’s Moby Dick is a dark and immersive plunge into Herman Melville’s epic story....
Review: AMY ANNETTE: THICK SKIN, Soho Theatre
by Christiana Rose - January 24, 2025
In a glorious assault on the image obsessed and therefore resulting trauma of the Noughties, Amy Annette’s ‘Thick Skin’ Debut UK Tour opened at The Soho Theatre to a sell-out audience. Through familiar nostalgia, the mesmerising image of a Nokia 6110 model consumed the background, a game of ‘Snake’ ...
Review: ONE MAN MUSICAL, Underbelly Boulevard
by Franco Milazzo - January 24, 2025
If sacred cows make the best burgers, Underbelly Soho could soon become the most popular fast food joint around. One Man Musical’s latest outing is quickly becoming something of a word-of-mouth must-see and, while the marketing is understandably coy about who the “one man” is, it becomes clear early...

Review: ONEGIN, Royal Ballet and Opera
by Matthew Paluch - January 23, 2025
Cranko took the predictable love melodrama - I want you, I don't, actually I do, well now I don’t - and turned it into a full-length, 3 act ballet. It divides people - some love, some less so. I definitely think it has strong moments throughout, and an overall, refined structure that can't be denied...
Review: MACBETH, In Cinemas
by Cheryl Markosky - January 22, 2025
David Tennant and Cush Jumbo lead a first-rate cast in a raw, visceral, brutal and ultimately hopeful show filmed live at the Donmar Warehouse in London....
Review: CANNED GOODS, Southwark Playhouse
by Cindy Marcolina - January 21, 2025
Erik Kahn’s play tested very positively in the States early last year and has gained even more resonance since then. Reviewing it on the day of the United States Presidential Inauguration, where Elon Musk gave a hasty Roman salute to Trump’s rapt audience, hit differently. In front of us, Charlotte ...
