When Rasheeda Speaking first premiered in the US, it was met with critical divide on all ends. It's the second play I've seen this week that's theatrically dissected race, culture and class. What makes this play different is that it throws office politics into the mix, placing focus on racism in a more isolated setting.
This play touches on pretty much everything. Politics, race, religion, womanhood and class are just a few of the notions investigated in Selina Fillingers tightly written Faceless, inspired by true events, and currently running at the Park Theatre.
Every now and then you see a piece of theatre that lights a fire under you. A play that is so brilliant, it shows how special performance can be. Something so meticulously precise and genuinely unique. Education, Education, Education is that show. Riding high from their sensational run at the Edinburgh Fringe, Wardrobe Ensemble arrive at Shoreditch Town Hall for a limited run.
Let's face it, we never turn into the person our parents hope we'll be. Most of the time, our maternal up-bringers learn to adjust to this fact, and accept their offspring for who they are.

Ah secondary school - the most important time in any persons life. The years where you make the best memories, meet the most exciting people and have zero care in the world. That place where nothing really matters and everything seems pretty chill - right?
William Congreve's restoration classic originally premiered in 1700 and even though it bombed back then, nowadays it is adored for its bonkers farce and balletic lyricism. The story may be long; the play lasts three hours in total and as an audience your patience will be tested. But stick with it; the overall pay off will certainly be worth it.
Kevin Armento's play puts the narratives of five different and complex women on stage; whilst at the same time places an intense glare upon Bill Clinton's illicit relationship with Monica Lewinsky.
