Review: MISS MYRTLE'S GARDEN, Bush Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Jun 7, 2025

Miss Myrtle’s garden is an oasis caught in the jaws of gentrification. As her mind starts to go, her grandson Rudy moves in with his “friend” and prods her for answers about their shared past. The generational gap is an abyss of doubt, but is that what’s making it hard for her grandson to be open about his life? Danny James King writes a sophisticated exploration of memory, grief, and identity, which, directed by Taio Lawson (the Bush Theatre’s incoming Artistic Director), becomes a touching, beautiful piece of theatre. King surrounds the stigma of dementia with lots of breathing space rooted in the unsaid, sweetening uncomfortable truths with surprising circumstantial humour. A finely tuned balance is set up: though frankly hilarious at times, the show bottles up that unbearable wave of sadness you get when you see an old person sitting by themselves.

Review: PEANUT BUTTER AND BLUEBERRIES, Kiln Theatre
by Louise Penn - Aug 15, 2024

Peanut Butter and Blueberries is original, sweet, touching and vibrant. It is extremely refreshing to see a play about the British Muslim experience where trauma and tradition are, of course, acknowledged, but are not the main focus of the drama. As this is Manzoor-Khan's first play, it will be fascinating to see what she tackles next.
