Review: A GHOST IN YOUR EAR, Hampstead Theatre
by Katie Kirkpatrick - Jan 9, 2026
Walking down an ominous red-lit corridor and being asked to put on over-ear headphones isn’t your typical start to a night at the theatre – but then A Ghost in Your Ear isn’t your typical play. Jamie Armitage’s second show as both writer and director (after last year’s An Interrogation) is a true horror piece, with ingenious use of binaural sound design.

Review: THE REAL ONES, Bush Theatre
by Katie Kirkpatrick - Sep 13, 2024
At once intimate and expansive, The Real Ones follows the friendship of Zaid and Neelam from age nineteen to thirty-six. Once kindred spirits, moving in sync, they fall out of step when the harsh reality of adult life sends them in different directions. Waleed Akhtar (Olivier winner for The P Word) pens a sharply observed look into whether platonic love can last.
Review: SOME DEMON, Arcola Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Jun 20, 2024
Laura Waldren lifts the veil off an eating disorder unit. While the characters try hard to cope with an alienating structure that fails many of its patients, Waldren examines institutional callousness and human failure.

Review: SELF-RAISING, Soho Theatre
by Kat Mokrynski - Feb 9, 2024
'Self-Raising begins with a sack of flour. But it’s not just a sack of flour. The show begins with writer and performer, Jenny Sealey, telling us how it was originally meant to be an adaptation of Annie Fine’s Flour Babies, but quickly changed into Sealey telling her own life story. Just with a few more bags of flour.'
