REVIEW: The Importance of Being Earnest The paradigm of Wildean comedy, β€œThe Importance of Being Earnest”, By Oscar Wilde, is β€œa trivial play for serious people”. The play follows characters, richly saturated with eccentricity, and their romantic ramblings within the rigidly ritualistic Victorian upper class.

REVIEW: 3.5 stars to The Importance of Being Earnest @bedlamtheatre

"A beautiful and well-designed production that could do with a boost in energy and humour."

REVIEW: A Giant On The Bridge Fascinating, mad and impactful are just a few of the words one could use to describe A Giant On The Bridge. This concert-like experience mixed with spoken-word theatre blends the story of a father on his way home from prison to meet his family with that of a more traditional story of a giant and a prince.

REVIEW: 4 1/2 to A Giant On The Bridge @thebeaconarts

"Deeply emotional and slightly mad, this is a performance which stands out from the rest"

REVIEW: America The Beautiful: Chapter 1 an exclusive collection of savage short plays offering a uniquely skewed view of life and relationships in the modern world. Neil LaBute’sΒ America The Beautiful: Chapter 1Β makes its UK debut at the King’s Head Theatre. Comprising of three thirty-minute plays written over the past decade for the LaBute New Theater Festival in the US, the collection offers a searing, albeit varied, look at the darker side of the human condition. The first two chapters play at King’s Head Theatre from 9–21 March.

REVIEW: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ to America The Beautiful: Chapter 1

"High-caliber performances anchor this sharp, if occasionally inconsistent, triple bill"

REVIEW: In Bloom Β In Bloom is a bold, playful and deeply feminine solo performance that blends theatre, dance and storytelling. At its heart, it asks a deceptively simple question: what does it mean to bloom again after the wind has forced you shut?

REVIEW: 4.5 stars to In Bloom @ Old Red Lion Theatre on Sunday 8th March

"Sometimes the bravest thing a flower can do is open again."
