Review: ALISON SPITTLE: BIG, Soho Theatre
by Kat Mokrynski - December 12, 2025
Alison Spittle: BIG begins with Spittle entering the stage wearing a costume made out of colourful loofahs, before pulling it off to reveal a sequined outfit underneath. But this isn’t just a costume reveal - Spittle confesses to the audience that, while she is still fat (and has been since she was eight), she has recently lost a considerable amount of weight. BIG is about not only the weight loss journey, but Spittle’s relationship with her body over the years.
Review: THE RED SHOES, Sadler's Wells Theatre
by Mica Blackwell - December 12, 2025

If you're unable to find a production of The Nutcracker this holiday season, a trip to Sadler's Wells will more than suffice.
