EDINBURGH 2026 Review: RIP HER TO SHREDS, Underbelly Cowgate
by Cindy Marcolina - Aug 12, 2026
Some plays feel like direct responses to other, more famous, more accomplished plays. There’s a lot of John Proctor Is The Villain in Rip Her To Shreds, but we’re not entirely sure we mean it in a good way. Like Kimberly Belflower’s, Isabelle Barbier’s drama deals with female rage and social pressure while winking blatantly at The Crucible. Unfortunately, at this stage, hers is too messy, chaotic, loud, superficial, and immature to be of any consequence.

Review: JOHN PROCTOR IS THE VILLAIN, Royal Court Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Mar 27, 2026
When John Proctor is the Villain opened on Broadway last year, it lit a fire. Kimberly Belflower’s response to Arthur Miller’s The Crucible is more than play, it’s a movement. After shaking things up overseas, the piece is taking on London now (in the same venue that saw the U.K. premiere of Miller’s chef d’oeuvre seven decades ago almost to the day!) with its full creative team in tow and a brand new cast.
