BWW Review: ALL OF IT, Royal Court Theatre
Kate O'Flynn is in award-winning form as the baby who grows into a girl and then a woman before her life's span is through in Alistair McDowall's clattering monologue.
Gary Naylor - Page 27
BWW Review: DEATH OF ENGLAND, National Theatre
Roy Williams and Clint Dyer's one man play explores the complexities of white working class identity in a multicultural, post-Brexit England with verve and passion.
BWW Review: ALICE'S ADVENTURES UNDER GROUND, Royal Opera House
Antony McDonald's production of Gerald Barry's hurtling dash through Wonderland and behind the Looking Glass is a delight from start to finish - or it will be for some.
BWW Review: PERSONA, Riverside Studios
Persona transfers somewhat uneasily from screen to stage in Paul Schoolman's new adaptation, but retains its intellectual heft and eerily subversive quality.
BWW Review: UNCLE VANYA, Harold Pinter Theatre
This is an Vanya for 2020 that loses nothing in Conor McPherson's sublime update.
BWW Review: THE CANARY AND THE CROW, Arcola Theatre
Daniel Ward's autobiographical tale, told as gig theatre, has plenty to say and says it well - we would be wise to listen.
BWW Review: TWELFTH NIGHT, Jack Studio Theatre
This no frills Twelfth Night rattles through Shakey's comedy getting laughs along the way, but includes some artistic decisions that didn't quite land as clearly as they were, perhaps, intended to.
BWW Review: OFF THE TOP WITH JASON KRAVITS AND SPECIAL GUESTS, Crazy Coqs
Jason Kravits brings his big voice and madcap improv skills to London's leading cabaret room and the result is just what January needs.
BWW Review: ONCE, Ashcroft Playhouse Fairfield Halls
Once shows all its crowdpleasing credentials in this new touring production with a tremendous cast doing full justice to its score and carrying a somewhat corny plot to a standing ovation curtain.
BWW Review: TOM BROWN'S SCHOOL DAYS, Union Theatre
The Union Theatre's Essential Classics season kicks off with Phil Willmott's updating of a classic with much to say about England in 2020.
BWW Review: LA TRAVIATA, Royal Opera House
Richard Eyre's production gets yet another run out 25 years on, but it's so beautiful and brilliantly sung, no further justification is required.
2019 Year in Review: Gary Naylor's Best of Theatre
BWW Reviewer Gary Naylor picks his 2019 highlights
BWW Review: CINDERELLA, Fairfield Halls
Cinderella delivers a true family pantomime that mixes spectacular sets and costumes with plenty of laughs in a show that doesn't push back any boundaries, but delivers what its audience wants at Christmas.
BWW Review: THE OCEAN AT THE END OF THE LANE, National Theatre
The Ocean at the End of the Lane offers a spectacular theatrical experience, but may leave some viewers cold with its whimsy and unwillingness to explore human relationships in depth.
BWW Review: WHISTLE DOWN THE WIND, Union Theatre
Sasha Regan revisits her 2015 production of the 1996 musical to deliver a splendid show for Christmas, with a relevance and harder edge that was missing a little four long years ago.
BWW Review: OTELLO , Royal Opera House
Two years on, Otello is revived in all its austere majesty, albeit a majesty that can be demanding to watch across a three hours running time.
BWW Review: RAVENS: SPASSKY VS FISCHER, Hampstead Theatre
Ravens: Spassky vs Fischer takes us to Iceland in 1974 for the World Chess Championship, a clash between two very different men and two very different systems but with much that is not so different to the politics of today.
BWW Review: UNCLE VANYA, Old Red Lion Theatre
This production pares back Chekhov's original text and foregrounds key themes with just a hint that Vanya even has something to say about the key political issue of the day.
BWW Review: YOU GAME, Studio Theatre RADA
Sam Ra's updating of Anthony Shaffer's much produced and adapted Sleuth takes it into the 21st century without really adding much save some difficulties that are not fully resolved.
BWW Review: A CHRISTMAS CAROL, Bridge House Theatre
Scrooge, the ghosts and a very Tiny Tim just an arm's length away in a fine adaptation of Dickens' timeless tale.
