Review: MASS, Donmar Warehouse
by Cheryl Markosky - Apr 30, 2026

At the end of Mass, currently celebrating its world stage premiere at London's Donmar Warehouse, my visibly moved son says, 'That's the best play I'll see this year.' And he's absolutely right. Director Carrie Cracknell's incredible interpretation of American actor-turned-writer Fran Kranz's stage script based on his 2021 independent film is simple, but also searingly powerful.

Review Roundup: Tom Stoppard's ARCADIA at The Old Vic
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Feb 5, 2026

Arcadia is set in April 1809 in a stately home in Derbyshire. Thomasina, a gifted pupil, proposes a startling theory, beyond her comprehension. All around her, the adults, including her tutor Septimus, are preoccupied with secret desires, illicit passions and professional rivalries. Two hundred years later, academic adversaries Hannah and Bernard are piecing together puzzling clues, curiously recalling those events of 1809, in their quest for an increasingly elusive truth.

Review: ARCADIA, The Old Vic
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Feb 5, 2026

Of all Tom Stoppard's work, Arcadia has always stood out. Touching on sex, Fermat's last theorum, the second law of thermodynamics, landscape gardening with a detective story thrown in, it is a mixture of subjects that few playwrights could attempt to combine. Does it matter if you don't understand the complex scientific and mathematical theories? Not at all. Carrie Cracknell's magnificent revival has huge amounts of humour and heart, which is not always a given with Stoppard's work.
