admin, , , ,

It’s no surprise that there’s a huge amount of hype surrounding the West End premiere of Dracula – the show’s star, Cynthia Erivo, has been collecting countless awards for her appearances in the Wicked movies, while adapter and director Kip Williams recently picked up Olivier and Tony Awards for his staging of The Picture of Dorian Gray, which featured Succession star Sarah Snook.

Ben Daniels is mesmerising in timely revival of Man and Boy at the National Theatre – review

admin, , , ,

Terence Rattigan’s Man and Boy is rarely performed – it wasn’t popular when it debuted back in 1963, receiving a muted response on both the West End and Broadway. It should be noted that this was due to the playwright’s declining popularity at the time; while his earlier plays were successful, by the 1960s the new wave of Angry Young Men had arrived, and in comparison Rattigan’s writing was deemed old-fashioned. We’re glad director Anthony Lau has revived this play for 2026, as it feels incredibly timely and relevant for…

The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry is a truly charming new musical – review

admin, , , ,

We were recently afforded a sneak peek into the world of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry: singer and songwriter Passenger, who has written the songs for this show, performed an intimate preview gig in London which we were fortunate enough to attend. As such, going into the theatre, we already had a sense of the songs we were about to hear, as well as a reasonable idea of the story. Given this, we were really quite surprised by just how invested we felt in these characters, and how impactful…

In amongst an extensive catalogue of plays, Arcadia is regarded by critics as his finest work, so we took the opportunity to check out The Old Vic’s revival over the weekend – especially after we’d been impressed with their 2024 revival of his…
