Edinburgh 2024 Review: UGLY SISTERS, Underbelly Cowgate
Ugly Sisters is one of those shows that leave you wondering what on earth you just watched – and then stays stuck in the back of your mind for days to follow.
Review: EDINBURGH 2024: PENTHESILEA, The Lyceum
Penthesilea is the queen of the Amazons, a race of warrior women who can only sleep with men they’ve defeated in battle.
Review: FANGIRLS, Lyric Hammersmith
Australian smash hit Fangirls encapsulates everything it is to be a mega fan of something.

Intricately weaving together a tapestry of different times and places, Nassim Soleimanpour’s ECHO is a feat of creative technology.
Review: GRUD, Hampstead Theatre
Sarah Power’s Grud is a show about space – in more ways than one.
Review: I'M GONNA MARRY YOU TOBEY MAGUIRE, Southwark Playhouse
Ever wanted to experience a sugar rush for nearly two hours straight? Samantha Hurley’s campy dark comedy I’m Gonna Marry You Tobey Maguire feels like exactly that.

Gunter is a messy play.

Review: FEELING AFRAID AS IF SOMETHING TERRIBLE IS GOING TO HAPPEN, Bush Theatre
A solo show that knows what it’s doing, it’s no wonder Feeling Afraid went down so well at the Edinburgh Fringe.

From the moment the lights go up, Lizzie is a full throttle onslaught of female rage.
