Review: THE COMEDY ABOUT SPIES, Adelphi Theatre
by Franco Milazzo - Aug 10, 2026
Set in 1961, the same year that a balding former milkman and coffin-polisher from Edinburgh was interviewed for the role of James Bond, The Comedy About Spies sees two pairs of agents (one American, one Russian) face off in London’s Piccadilly Hotel as they hunt for the mysterious “Project Midnight” documents. As this is from Mischief Theatre, there’s no prizes for guessing just how straightforward and successful they will be.

Critics’ Choice: Franco Milazzo's Best Theatre Of 2025
by Franco Milazzo - Dec 30, 2025
Looking back over 2025, it appears I sat in a dark room and wrote barely legible thoughts into a notebook on about 150-odd occasions. By the grace of God and the BroadwayWorld UK editor, I saw a real smörgåsbord of delights, everything from highly anticipated West End theatre to opera, dance, circus, cabaret, comedy and immersive theatre.

Review: FANNY, King's Head Theatre
by Franco Milazzo - Oct 17, 2025
In Calum Finlay’s Fanny, sibling rivalry and musical history occasionally seem barely more than mere pretexts for a superlative slice of Mischief-adjacent tomfoolery. When Fanny Mendelssohn finds out that not only is one of her works a favourite of Queen Victoria but her brother Felix is taking credit for it, the enraged composer begins a madcap journey from Berlin to Buckingham Palace to set the record straight.
