Gary Naylor sees a show that has its flaws but has the audience laughing out loud with silly gags, appalling stereotypes and witty songs.
BWW Review: MEDEA, Gate Theatre, November 9 2015
Gary Naylor sees a remarkable adaptation of Medea, one that allows the children to tell the story of their tragic fate.

Gary Naylor sees a star-studded production of The Winter's Tale that doesn't quite convince in overcoming the problems of one of Shakespeare's problem plays.

Gary Naylor sees a fine new musical that takes impressive base material and creates a musical that raises the emotional stakes even higher.

BWW Review: THE PHANTOM RASPBERRY BLOWER OF OLD LONDON TOWN, St James Theatre Studio, October 30 2015

BWW Reviews: A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC, Ye Olde Rose and Crown Theatre, October 14 2015
Gary Naylor sees a scaled-back adaptation of Sondheim's A Little Night Music that manages to capture all (well, almost all) of the appeal of the West End show.
BWW Reviews: THE TALES OF HOFFMANN, Britten Theatre, October 10 2015
Gary Naylor sees a scaled back but utterly compelling version of Offenbach's Tales of Hoffmann, that makes the occasional compromise with the stories, but none at all with the quality of the singing nor the sets.
BWW Reviews: WERTHER, Britten Theatre, October 8 2015
Gary Naylor sees a scaled back Werther that still packs an impressive punch, as two lives fall apart caught between love and duty.
BWW Reviews: BARBARIANS, Central St Martins, Charing Cross Road, October 6 2015

Gary Naylor sees a gruelling production of Medea that updates its story to the present day but loses its sense of direction just when it needs it most.
BWW Reviews: THE SWEETHEARTS, Finborough Theatre, September 30 2015
Gary Naylor sees a play that may not fully realise all its characters, but raises interesting questions and provides a shocking denouement.
