Review: THE STANDARD OF LIVING, Starring Rory Kinnear
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Sep 30, 2026

James Graham's latest play, The Standard of Living opens with a smartly dressed, well spoken man trying (and failing) to address an audience about his economic theory. It's a wry wink to the fact that the subject matter may not be everyone's specialist subject. But this is Graham, a master of making the dryest subject accessible and the flattest personality into a fascinating and human entity.

Review Roundup: Nadia Falls's ABIGAIL'S PARTY Lands In The West End
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Aug 20, 2026

Essex, 1977. Beverly is hosting, the alcohol is flowing, Demis Roussos is on the record player and the cheese and pineapple cocktail sticks are ready to go. Queen of the castle in her suburban semi, Beverly and husband Laurence welcome new neighbours Angela and Tony round for drinks. Sue from next door is invited too but the real party is happening back at her place, as Sue's teenage daughter Abigail can't seem to keep the racket down. Awkward small talk quickly descends into inappropriate flirtation and marital disputes: a soiree from hell, but it'd be rude to leave. What did the critics think?

Review: ABIGAIL'S PARTY, Starring Tamzin Outhwaite, Harold Pinter Theatre
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Aug 20, 2026

Nadia Fall is now firmly ensconced in her role as Artistic Director of the Young Vic, but her final show at Stratford East back in 2024 was a brilliantly realised revival of Mike Leigh's seminal work, Abigail's Party. Now having a much-deserved West End transfer, it lands on the Harold Pinter stage in all its excruciating glory.
