Review: DEAR MARTIN, Arcola Theatre
by Tsitsi Tsopotsa - Mar 10, 2025
The intimate Studio A at Dalston's Arcola Theatre provides the perfect backdrop for Dear Martin a psychological drama exploring mental health, manipulation and reversed gender dynamics. The converted textile factory, with its exposed brick walls and wooden floors, creates an atmospheric setting that complements the play's intense themes.
Review: THE RIVER, Greenwich Theatre
by Matthew Paluch - Oct 4, 2024
I think Jez Butterworth must love fishing, as his 2012 play The River spends quite a lot of the time talking about the intricacies of the pastime. If one doesn't partake it can make the text a little monotonous at times…but of course there's more to take from the overall experience.

Review: ANIMAL, Park Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Apr 22, 2023
Jon Bradfield (script) and Josh Hepple (original story alongside Bradfield) pen a relatable tale of love and lust in the digital age, putting disability centre-stage in all its complicated frustrations. They don’t shy away from bleak comedy and pitch-black wit, presenting an excellent piece of socially engaged theatre that educates and entertains in equal measure directed by Bronagh Lagan.
Review: THE MOORS, The Hope Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Oct 14, 2022
Phil Bartlett presents the British première with a sinister wink and eerie humour, but the text is a mismatch of gothic tropes and too unsure of its identity for the production to come together well. It's astonishing how the narrative lack of focus is as prominent as the precision of the direction and technical side of the show is.
