Review: LOVERS ACTUALLY, The Other Palace
by Louise Penn - November 27, 2025
Lovers Actually takes the mick out of everyone's love-hate Christmas film, Love Actually, in a show written by Neil Hurst and Jodie Prenger. Following on the heels of last year's Homo Alone, this show seasons the festive fun with a side of sauce. The musical aspect is fully embraced with lively choreography from Kim Healey. Ultimately, Lovers Actually is a cheeky nod to the naughty nineties, but there's a bit too much going on for it to leave us fully satisfied.

Guest Blog: 'It's A Truly Outrageous Story': Bag of Beard Theatre Director Alexander Knott on THE HIGHGATE VAMPIRE
by Guest Author - November 27, 2025
This whole thing started with James Demaine. He’s into his occult, his gothic horror, his folk tales, so I shouldn’t have been surprised. It started with a raised eyebrow. It started in a technical rehearsal for another play entirely, three years ago.

Review: Beczala and Golovatenko Make Met’s CHENIER a Memorable Night under Rustioni
by Richard Sasanow - November 26, 2025
For those of us who like verismo opera—combining the raw emotions of everyday people with historical splendor—but have heard one too many BOHEMEs, TOSCAs, TURANDOTs and BUTTERFLYs in this lifetime, noting Giordano’s ANDREA CHENIER in the Met’s repertoire for this season seemed like a godsend. Not seen in these parts since 2014, this tale of the French Revolution, a poet (the title role, sung by tenor Piotr Beczala) and blinding love set to a sweeping score was something to look forward to.
