Review: DARK OF THE MOON, Charing Cross Theatre
by Clementine Scott - May 26, 2026

The history of musical theatre was almost very different. In 1943, a ‘play with music’ called Dark of the Moon narrowly missed out on being selected for out-of-town tryouts in Connecticut, in favour of the genre-defining classic Oklahoma!. Now, after being reworked into a musical that premiered in California in 2023, Dark of the Moon arrives in London for the first time.

Review: FLYBY, Southwark Playhouse
by Cindy Marcolina - Apr 10, 2026

The Last Five Years meets Gravity to introduce their unfortunate lovechild. Daniel steals a spacecraft and leaves Earth; his ex-girlfriend, Emily, is left behind. A trio of scientists breaks down their complicated relationship while Daniel records his days orbiting the planet. On paper, Theo Jamieson’s new musical is a thrilling original concept. The core idea and its philosophical foundations are utterly compelling, so it’s a real shame that they bear very little weight against a shallow plot and uninteresting characters. Adam Lenson (credited as co-creator too) directs with profound empathy for the human race, trying hard to bring to life our harrowing need to feel connected. The material fails him.
